I would rather watch a
winner, than hear one any day...
I’d rather have one walk with me, than merely show the way.
The eye’s a better pupil and more willing than the ear.
Fine counsel is confusing, but example’s always clear.
And the best of all the coaches are the ones who live their deeds.
For to see the truth in action is what everybody needs.
I can soon learn how to do it, if you’ll let me see it done.
I can watch your hands in action, but your tongue too fast may run.
And the lectures you deliver may be very wise and true.
But, I’d rather get my lessons by observing what you do.
For I may misunderstand you and the high advice you give.
But there’s no misunderstanding how you act and how you live...

Whenever,
wherever, always together.
Sometimes out of breath – never out of style.
We are in front of you and behind you.
We are training til its dark.
We are strikers who defend.
We are defenders who attack.
We are the fear in our enemies.
We are the respect for our rivals.
We are all who have played.
We are all Who play next...
and we WILL make it count.

When you're on the field, all your doubts suddenly fade
I was at my brothers soccer game and I was walking with my friend and her mom and they're both really quiet and her mom said something and I didn't hear her so instead of asking her what I decided to do the whole smile and nod thing.
It was a question.
And not a yes or no question.
She called me out.

"Football
is no
longer
considered
merely
a global
sport,
but
also
as unifying
force
whose
virtues
can
make
an important
contribution
to society" ~ Joseph
S. Blatter
"FIFa
now
has an
even greater
responsibility
to reach
out
and
touch
the world,
using
football
as a
symbol
of hope
and
integration"
~ Joseph
S. Blatter
Don't
mess
with
girl
soccer players, they are
trained to kick balls...

"Soccer
isn't even
physical"
I would really like to see
you be pushed, elbowed,
kicked, cleated, slapped,
punched, bumped, knocked
over, slide tackled, and to
have done it legally. To play
through pain because
you know your team needs
you, and do it all without
a single complaint.
TRY IT.

My world is rectangular. It has
grass, dirt and mud just like yours. It also has my 11
bestfriends on it. My world is much smaller than yours, but just
as important to me.
Soccer is my world.
Soccer is my world.
SOCCER
is more than a game, more like a
PASSION
mud, grass stains, and bruises are the new
FASHION
the breakaway, the shot, the chasing
DEFENSE
this is what soccer is all about, the
INTENSE
parents on the sidelines, the anxious
COACHES
and
TEAMMATES
yelling at you, the bad
REFS
and poor sports, the
FOOTWORK
the
BALL
the players and
GOALS
the red cards
FOULS
and penalties, this is
SOCCER, THE GAME THAT I LOVE.
