Soccer, quick, electrifying and entertaining but is it harder working than Australian rules. Soccer is a very fast sport it’s not really at strong as AFL as soccer is used for more quick turns and electrifying runs through defences. There are different positions in a soccer team that require different strengths. A goals keeper you need to be very flexibly and very quick at changing your diving positions in a few seconds. As a defender you need to have strength and ball control, the defenders use their strength to bully off striker who are trying to run past. A midfield usually has mixed abilities such as a…
Despite the many differences that soccer and football have it is interesting to see all that these sports are also pretty similar but with not many big difference’s in both. A lot of the differences are actually just the amount of protective gear or one sport may have more necessities then the other. Another difference is just simply where the sports are…
From school yards to professional stadiums, there is a game being played that everyone loves. It is the game of soccer. It has a unique history and can be traced back to B.C. times. It has not always been a friendly sport and in some areas it was even banned by many because of the violence it would bring out in the players. However, with all of that, it is a game that everyone has seemed to embrace.…

Soccer in many countries cannot be understood apart from the country's culture, traditions, class structure, geography, and values. Soccer reflects a nation's culture because it permeates all levels of a society. There are probably climatic reasons why South Americans in their warm climate play at a different pace than the English, who play right through the winter and have to keep running to combat the cold. Brazilian soccer, so well documented by Janet Lever (1983) in Soccer Madness, is "alegre," soccer to a Samba beat-joyous, unpredictable, spontaneous, "poetry and motion."…
The second reason soccer is better is because it…
Soccer has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I first started playing I was four or five years old and am still currently playing for the Cape Coral Cyclones and the Oasis Sharks Varsity team. The game of soccer is a way for me to get away from all the stress and issues that I’m currently experiencing. When I’m on the field there is nothing on my mind except playing my game. Soccer has been a major part of my life ever since I was a kid and it has had a huge impact as well. Along with playing the game, I have also developed valuable teamwork and leadership skills.…
Now that you have an idea of the rules of professional soccer, I will continue to explain the popularity and passion of the game. Soccer is very widely played all over the world. The most prestigious international soccer competition is that of the world cup, held every four years, it lasts about a month, the most recent one being held in South Africa world cup 2010. With more than a billion viewers a day and tuned in to approximately 30 billion times, it is more popular than the Super Bowl, the World Series, the Masters, and the NBA finals. One reason many researchers believe it is so popular, especially in third world countries is because of the lack of things needed in order to play. All you need is a goal and a ball. Soccer is so much a part of so many people’s everyday lives.…
Many people think soccer is a game of intensity where winning is everything but that is not always true. To me soccer is having fun. Some people have what it takes and others do not. Soccer is intense, but winning is not everything. Enjoying the game and playing the way that makes you feel good is truly soccer. Confidence is a key element in the game and I love soccer because, it involves a lot of running and skill, I have been playing soccer since the beginning of middle school, and it is a team sport. Soccer is the most played sport worldwide, many people love it. You can improve your skills with your feet, and get a lot of exercise. When I go to play or practice my soccer skills, I forget about all of the bad things that happened at school, and my personal life. It also takes my mind off of stress and drama. Soccer has taught me the value of respect and working as a team to achieve a certain goal. From soccer I learned about my strength and weaknesses but more importantly I learned the things I can do to improve those weaknesses. Soccer is always changing and, there is always room from improvement and not one player is good at everything. There is always new tricks and tactics to learn about soccer.…

I have been playing soccer for many years, ever since I was a little boy. In my village Kigali in Rwanda, Africa everyone plays soccer. This is probably due to the face that it does not cost much money to play soccer. All you really need is soccer shoes, a ball and a goal. Once you have these items you and your friends can spend hours playing soccer.…
Many people may think that soccer is just a sport, but to me it means much more. I believe in the feeling I get when I dribble down the pitch, juke out a defender, and score the winning goal. It is such a rush to race down the pitch and send an amazing through pass to your teammate who scores the goal. Soccer has taught me many life lessons such as to always try your best, exercise is important, and to be respectful to everyone you play with or against.…
It’s pretty obvious what ill be talking about today and for those that are completely clueless then good at least I’m surprising a few. For those who don’t know what I’m holding, this right here established the foundation of my childhood, culture, and future. You guys thought I was going to keep it simple and say, “It’s just a soccer ball” well yes it is but to me it’s so much more than that. Lets begin with saying soccer is universal. There is so much more than running non-stop for 90 minutes and going up and down a field chasing a ball. Since I cant speak for everyone in the room and I don’t have super powers to read peoples mind, to me, soccer builds our character, holds families together, and brings a divided world into one.…
The sport brings the spirit and my mood up drastically. Soccer is magic and it plays good with your emotion and , makes you express it in a great way. Sure you can say it looks like just a field of white lines , two goals , and a bunch of white…
Playing soccer in my opinion is a difficult task, not everyone has the natural talent to be good at this game; but to play soccer there are basic qualities that you must possess to start learning to play. A player must be very dedicated and committed to learning the sport. For example, it took me a couple of years to play competitively in the local leagues. To play soccer competitively, you must have good physical condition, ball control, and to play your position.…
