Item description from seller

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Master's Thesis from the year 2015 in the subject Sport - Miscellaneous, grade: 1,3, Sport Academy Cologne (Institute of European Sport Development and Leisure Studies), course: Sportentwicklung, language: English, abstract: The aim of this study was to examine the effects of a football program for adolescent girls with the aim of developing life skills.
