Goals beyond the game: Football as a therapeutic tool in occupational therapy
27 Nov 2025
Innovation Theatre
| Football is more than a game! This session explores a creative occupational therapy intervention using football within a multidisciplinary group setting. Designed for children and young people who may struggle to access traditional therapy, football offers a familiar and motivating way to build engagement and participation, build peer relationships, and support emotional and social development. Learn how football can support key therapeutic goals including self-awareness, emotional regulation, empathy, and social skills while providing a dynamic, movement-based approach for those who benefit from active participation. |
