Good question huh? That's right it's a sport?, similar to football where a bunch of kids run around and kick a round ball:
To most of us, that's about all it is!! What a shame. It is in many places a highly competitive team sport that has many aspects, offense, defense, strategy, stamina, speed, knowledge, team work ethic, extremes in speed, ability to make quick decisions, and reliability on your teamates.
There are some links here to introduce you to the way the game was intended to be coached, learned, played and won!!!:
After spending over twenty years coaching Youth Soccer and Other Sports ( Baseball, and Basketball ) Not only for my own Children, but for their peer groups, both older and younger, and trying during those years to work within the system to improve and expand it. I have gotten to the point in my life when i no longer have children involved, and can now spend time concentrating on the other side of the Ball, Wish us luck!!:
