Example:
Soccer is the most played sport worldwide, many people love it because you can improve your skills with your feet, and get a lot of exercise. I have heard from some people that soccer is a boring sport to watch, but the truth is, it’s a very interesting sport with a lot of excitement in it. Soccer really is the best Olympic sport!
When playing soccer, fitness is critical! You need possession of the ball in order to keep it away from the other team players, and at times, it can be fun because if you have possession of the ball most of the game, your chances of winning is higher. Some people think that you don’t get exercise from soccer; the fact is that all positions require a high level of athleticism and fitness!
In addition, soccer players need amazing skills in order to play the sport, because they don’t just chase a ball around a field. If you play soccer, you have to practice in order to win, just like any other sport. When playing a game, you need to do moves that you have practiced, to get past the other teams defence and score a goal, and you also have to teach yourself mentally to think before you react. That’s why it is so fun to watch!
Soccer brings people together! You get to play as a team and when you’re watching it you get to celebrate as a team. There’s nothing like seeing the green and gold uniforms score a goal. Plus, soccer is played all throughout the year and all throughout the world so you can watch it at any time! Bonus!
Soccer is the number one Olympic sport! It’s fun to watch because the team is very athletic and fit, the athlete’s show amazing skills and you get to support for countries team! Go Australia Socceroos!
