Soccer for everyone
I am a big fan of soccer, though I’m much better at watching it than playing. It is such an international sport, and passions run deep. I went to Africa two years ago, and the people there – particularly the children – loved to play and follow their favourite teams (though I did notice that Arsenal supporters far outnumbered supporters for my favourite team, Chelsea, in the English Premier League!) Those playing competition soccer locally are approaching a critical time of the season, so good luck to all teams – and remember that playing your best and enjoying the game is what counts.
