Curacao Team Doctor Stresses Emotional Benefits of Intimacy During World Cup Camp

Dr Suzanne Huurman, Curacao’s team doctor, explains why players were allowed to stay with partners and families at the World Cup base in Florida. She says sharing hotel rooms and having intimate time reduces homesickness and provides vital emotional support during a long tournament.

Curacao drew 0-0 with Ecuador before falling 7-1 to Germany in their opening matches.
