For the twelve years I have been a cheerleader for my school football games, I have come to learn the basics of the sport of passing and running a pigskin across one hundred yards of a field. But I had never attended a soccer game so I felt intrigued to explore this sport and culture that I knew nothing about. I came to learn that UNCG Men’s Soccer team was in the top five in the nation, so I decided to see what it was all about. Little did I know that it was much like football, but had different rules and basics for making the game its own. ...
I already knew the point of the game of soccer is to advance the ball down the field and into the opponent’s goal. ... The cards was explained to my by a friend that attended the game with me who used to play soccer for our high school. ...
An important part of soccer is knowing how to correctly move the ball. ... A factor I was told to remember by the “soccer game attendee buddy” was when playing soccer is to never kick the ball with point or toe of your shoe! ...
In the games I attended, the mass of people was unbelievable; I never imagined that so many people came out to watch soccer. Much like football, fans get very enthusiastic about their favorite team. ... Fans make up a large part of any sport, but at the soccer game it hit home.
Despite the little knowledge that I had of soccer, I was shown that it is a great sport.
