Soccerex USA to deliver the Wellness Zone in partnership with the Wellness Universe!

As was witnessed at this summer’s FIFA World Cup, teams are placing greater value on the mental aspects of sports performance and this subject will be looked at in depth at this year’s Soccerex USA – November 15/16, Miami – with a special event zone, delivered in partnership with The Wellness Universe.

England Manager, Gareth Southgate recognised the importance of a holistic approach and used psychometric tests to measure his player’s mental strength before flying out to Russia for the World Cup. The team also completed daily “wellness questionnaires” before winning their first ever World Cup penalty shootout en route to the semi finals.

At Soccerex USA, the exhibition will feature The Wellness Zone and areas dedicated to this subject where a series of presentations and workshops will be delivered over two days, looking at different aspects of mindfulness and mental conditioning in relation to sports performance. Topics to be covered include motivation, neuro linguistic programming (NLP), holistic health and wellness remedies. The zone will also feature experts in this sector through a series of exhibition booths grouped around the presentation area.

The Wellness Universe is the world’s first, one-stop, online directory and resource centre to support and promote whole-health and well-being on a global scale. Their unprecedented platform connects world-changers – industry leaders and wellness entrepreneurs – online and through live events to seekers of total wellness. The Wellness Universe provides its 2,800 members and the public with access to wellness resources and education, and guidance in strategic development to transform visions of service into thriving businesses.

Commenting on the announcement, Anna Pereira Co-Founder, The Wellness Universe said, “We at The Wellness Universe are very excited to be part of Soccerex USA. Bringing wellness to soccer is a facet to not only serve the athlete and organization on the field; it serves them off the field as well. Now more than ever, people are embracing the mind, body, spirit connection to not only operate at peak performance on the field, but are seeing the benefits in their personal lives. Attending to our well-being, incorporating mindfulness practices, therapies, techniques and working on our consciousness is as important to our success as physical training. In fact, we already know that the mind is in control and the more we do things that serve ourselves holistically, the more successful we will be in our personal and professional lives. Wellness is a state of mind as well as physical one.”

Fellow Co-Founder, Shari Alyse said, “More and more people are coming to understand that true success isn’t attached to some external outcome or isn’t defined by just one thing. True success is felt internally. It’s showing up for that game, at your job, and with your family feeling good emotionally, physically and spiritually. We are proud and excited to bring our wellness practitioners to Soccerex to help support all aspects of the soccer industry ultimately contributing to each person’s success which contributes to the success of everyone.”

The Wellness Zone is part of an industry leading conference programme at Soccerex USA that is being developed in conjunction with an advisory board containing representatives from Concacaf, MLS and US Soccer. For more information about the advisory board please click here.

Soccerex USA is sponsored by the London Football Exchange, the world’s first fully integrated soccer club stock exchange and marketplace, and hosted in partnership with General American Capital Partners. The two day event will take place at Miami’s iconic Marlins Park and will comprise an exhibition showcasing the latest soccer business, performance and technology innovations.

Soccerex USA will include a programme of structured and informal networking events to connect delegates from across the USA and the rest of the world and it will feature a market leading conference agenda, with international experts tackling topics such as league expansion, women’s soccer, youth development, eSports, stadia technology, investment and new commercial opportunities.
