Abstract

The importance of enjoying physical exercise and interaction with others in sports has been suggested, however it has not been clarified what activities lead to enjoyment. Therefore, we conducted an online questionnaire survey of students attending soccer school after practice and conducted a correlation analysis of their impressions of attending school, whether they enjoy soccer school activities, and what activities lead to enjoyment, and found that the main factor contributing to their enjoyment of soccer school was game (match), also suggesting that enjoying school is related to running a lot and being involved with the ball a lot. On the other hand, students who could juggle well tended not to enjoy it.
