Going for the Goal!

Run, pass, and kick the ball into the

goal! Soccer is so much fun! But it takes

a lot of hard work.

Soccer is a very simple game. To

play, all you need is a field, two goals, and

a ball. Players try to get the ball into the

other teams goal. Your hands cant touch

the ball. The team that scores the most

goals wins.

Did You Know?

More people play soccer than

any other sport. Its called

football all over the world

except in North America.

Championship Dreams

If your team works hard, you may

even get to play in the big tournament .

That means you get to keep playing after

the regular season is over.

It is a big honor to play in the

tournament. But it also means you and

your team must get ready to play the best

teams around. That means more practice.

History of Soccer

The game of

soccer dates back

about 4,000 years.

The Chinese

played a game

called Tsu Chu .

It means kicking

the ball with feet.

Your coach may set a new practice

schedule (SKEJ-ool). During the regular

season, you may have practiced once a

week for one hour. Now, the coach may

want your team to practice three times a

week for a total of four hours a week.

Tournament Practice Schedule

Monday Wednesday Friday

4:00 P.M. 5:30 P.M. 5:30 P.M. 6:30 P.M. 4:30 P.M. 5:30 P.M.

Based on this tournament practice schedule,

how long do players practice every week?

The tournament games are on the

weekend. That means you may be on the

soccer field five times in one week. Its a

good thing your team loves to play!

World Cup

The World Cup is the worlds

biggest soccer tournament.

This international contest is

held every four years.

The Best Teams Around

The best teams from all over the

region come to play at the tournament.

If your team beats the first opponent, you

get to move on to the second round. If

you lose, you are out of the tournament.
