When you put on shorts and a jersey to join in the action of playing the game of soccer, you're part of a game that has won fame on many counts.
First, soccer is a game that's recognized as the most popular team sport in the world.
Second, soccer is one of the fastest and most strenuous games ever played on foot.
Finally, simple though it is, soccer is one of the world's most challenging games.
It is also one of the oldest games in history. It began as tsu tsu (meaning "to kick a leather ball with the feet") in China about 2,500 years ago, came to England with the Romans around 2000 years ago, and then spread to the rest of the world.
Young people are especially fond of soccer. Not only is it full of good action, but it has a place for all who want to play. There are positions on the team for players of all shapes and sizes. The purpose of this book is to help you find your place in the game, whether you join a team or just get together for a good time with your friends.
