Technology at the service of children's training 🖥️

In the digital age, tools such as motion sensors and biomechanical analysis apps allow young athletes to correct technical gestures in real time. Machado commented that these resources, used under supervision, accelerate learning without replacing physical practice. The camp integrated interactive videos to show plays, demonstrating that technology, when properly applied, complements traditional training and keeps children focused on clear goals.

Machado: the teacher who doesn't assign homework, but asks for sweat 💦

While the children waited for Machado to reveal the secret to dribbling like a star, the Brazilian dropped the bombshell: there is no magic trick, just repeating exercises until your legs hurt. Some kids made faces as if they had received a surprise exam, but at least there was no homework. That said, they left the camp convinced that sweating is the new favorite video game.
