Football: Be A Star On The Field In No Time - PDF eBook
==========================================
All right! So soccer season is right around the corner and you want to
make sure that youre ready when try-outs roll around. Sounds like fun!
Soccer is among the most notorious sports in history, and although it
traveled to the United States from countries on the European continent
(where it still holds the title of football rather than soccer, something that
can be very disconcerting for those used to the term football referring to
something played with a pigskin and slightly more violence than soccer) it
has become one of the great American pastimes, along with baseball and
basketball.
Although it is not nearly as brutal as football soccer is still not for the
faint of heart. It takes a great deal of muscle and endurance to keep up when
you are racing across a field as fast as you can in an attempt to outrun the
competition and take home the prize-in this case, the black and white
checkered blur that you see rolling down the field towards your goalie as the
other team attempts to gain their advantage. If you have been an avid sports
enthusiast all your life this is probably nothing new to you; you already
know how to keep fit so that you are prepared for anything the playing field
might throw your way. You probably make a concentrated effort to eat
properly and set aside a portion of your day to workout. There will be no
surprises waiting for you when you step out onto that field; as a matter of
fact, if you have played soccer before you probably know exactly what
youre getting yourself into and are wasting your time reading this report!
On the other hand, if you are new to the game and physical activity
has never really been your thing but you have decided to give it a try you
probably need to spend a little bit of time
getting yourself in shape. If this describes
you, its okay; dont develop an inferiority
complex simply because you are afraid that
you may be a little bit behind the game. It
wont take you long at all to catch up with
your potential teammates if you are willing to
put a little bit of effort into it.
Of course, simply knowing that you
need to put in a little effort in order to keep up
with your competition when the time comes
for tryouts isnt going to do you very much good; you need to know exactly WHAT you need to do to ensure that you are as prepared as you could
possibly be the first time you step out onto that field. (For reference sake, we
are going to assume that the reason you want to prepare yourself for soccer
is so that you can be ready when you go up against competition for a spot on
the team for the very first time. We realize that this may not necessarily be
the case; there are a number of leagues that do not require that their players
audition, and if you happen to play for one of these leagues it doesnt matter;
the information we are going to relay below is going to apply just as
accurately to your situation as well.)
