Soccer is a team sport. Soccer is an individual sport. Soccer is kicking, shooting, passing, throwing, scoring, dribbling, trapping, defending, attacking. The feeling you get because the fresh grass is under your cleats is soccer. The feeling you get when it's just you and the ball dribbling and cutting throughout the field is soccer. The feeling you get when you make one good pass that sets someone up to score is soccer. When you score because of a good pass it's soccer. The victories and losses you share as a team and as an individual is indescribable and amazing. The winning or losing of your little battles could cost you the game. Somewhere inside you find that little spark of confidence that tells you, you can do anything you want. When you get on the field that spark is suddenly released and you don't care about anything else besides your team, how you play, and the victory that could be yours. There is so much more to soccer than meets the eye and I wish everyone could experience the feelings inside when playing this sport.

  1. I think you did a great job and I can't think of a way to make it better because the way you described it felt as if i were feeling it. I think you should send it to asa clark to see if you could get it on his blog because it is really good and I think it is better than some of the posts on his blog.
