If I could go back in time I would go back to the day I signed up for school sports and switch the little check in the football box to the soccer box. It was sixth grade year and it was the first year I could play school sports and I was the happiest kid alive. In my head I thought football was going to be super fun but, in reality, I wasn 't very good at it. I stuck with it for a couple years but I just didn 't have the size or strength. Finally, as a freshman I switched over to soccer which is something i 'm extremely glad I did. Soccer is something that I didn 't play much as a kid but, my brother and my sister played so I was always around it.

The friendships made from playing soccer are a wonderful thing, they just give the sport a little something extra because now you 're not only playing for your team but you’re also playing to beat your friend on the other team. It just gives the sport a little extra competition. Soccer to me hasn’t been just going out and playing games against other people it also is a huge relaxation technique. Some people won’t see it as that, but for me if I have something on my mind I can head out to the field and shoot around or I can run some drills and it just seems like nothing matters anymore.

Soccer helped me transition to adulthood by teaching me life skills within the game. There are so many lessons to be learned within the game of soccer, such as “when life knocks you down just get back up and keep going”. In soccer if you fall down the game doesn 't stop, or no one stands there and waits for you to get up, everything just keeps going and that’s the same thing in the real world, no one is going to stand there and wait for you when something
Soccer, or football as it's known in many parts of the world, has a unique way of bringing people together. It's a sport that transcends borders, languages, and cultures. For me, soccer has been an integral part of my life, and there's one moment that changed everything. This moment wasn't just about winning a game or scoring a goal. It was about discovering my passion for soccer, overcoming setbacks, and achieving success on and off the field.
I used to run down the sideline shaking the goal jar, now I run around with a cash box at every school event asking for donations for the senior class.

As an in-coming freshman who hadn’t played on a school team in middle school, I was at a disadvantage because I was behind in skills and didn’t know many of the tricks. Fortunately, the coach saw my potential and I made the varsity team. My coaches and teammates continually pushed me and helped me become an even better player than I was before. Over the course of my four years on the team, I faced several obstacles that made me feel weak and inadequate, but to overcome them I reminded myself that I loved soccer. The biggest obstacle I faced was getting a concussion my junior year.

As a result, we have become a more welcoming people, more willing to help others, and inclusive to others.
The game of soccer, in and of itself is very simple, a rectangle field two goals, two teams, one ball. The simplicity of this game allows i to be by far the most popular sport on the planet by viewers and players, kids in Ghana can express themselves using a ball made out of trash and goals made out of trees and Cristiano Ronaldo can express himself in front of millions of viewers on the best field on the planet but fundamentally the game is all the same, no gimmicks, nothing special.

Soccer brought me out my kind of addiction to video games which were my life during my childhood. Soccer got me outside and around people more to socialize. It was not easy for me at first to just go and join the soccer team after not playing any sport since I was around seven years old. I worked hard for about a year before I joined the high school team. I spent many hours outside for many days to get into shape and fit enough to play for long periods of time.
