In everything in life that we do it has sports in it, and there are different categories of sports, so it depends on where you grew up and or where you were raised. Which goes on to determine which sport you like or it depends on culture that rises? For example if raised in America you go on to like Football, Basketball or Baseball in a second hand if your raised in South America you go on to liking Soccer, which brings me to the body of the subject in the next paragraph. To start with I like…

Loud cheers and shouts make your ears ring as you sprint through the field as fast as a cheetah. The brown leather ball suddenly feels as heavy as a boulder in your hands as you try to avoid getting tackled. Huff! Huff! Your breath is heavy, and the sun’s light bores down onto your back. Beads of sweat fall down your face, not just because of the running, but the amount of stress on your shoulders. You are almost there, and you can feel the victory, but then a load of weight slams into your side…

Tough aint enough Last month saw the finals of the women's world cup football with the UK coming in a respectable third as they played off against our favourite rivals Germany and the Americans, who still feel the need to call the game soccer, won over Japan - kudos. Certain things that stood out again, not only the level of skill proving every bit entertaining as their male counter parts, yet again proving just how tough these female athletes are some journalists comparing them to the men.…

The person who inspires me the most is soccer player Cristiano Ronaldo, he isn't just a normal soccer player to me he is my inspiration and my motivation to never stop trying, never give up, and doing the best I can. This belief is important to me because during my own personal struggles as a kid I looked up to Ronaldo as a role model someone who I could relate to and make a personal connection with. I have come to develop this belief because even with Cristiano's struggles in life he was still…

Rhapsody at Chimbiya (Drama) Breaks squeaked and the engine boomed announcing its arrival at Chimbiya bar. Suspicious four faces alighted from the machine without number plates and entered the bar. “Barman, give us four beers,” one of the four men with a scar above his right eye and slightly shorter shouted. Make sure the beers are cold added another of the group After an hour, the bar was full of patrons. Call me, Bonzo; the man with the scar told the bartender. And that man with a…

To What Extent Is FIFA Destroying The World Of Football? Football is one of the world’s most popular and most played sport in the world. The contemporary history of this beautiful game dates all the way back to 1863 when the Football Association (FA) was formed in England. Football had already been introduced and played many years prior to the FA’s founding in 1863; however, October 26, 1863 was the date that eleven London football club and school representatives came together at a tavern with…

As the warm, July sun broke out of its slumber and the twilight sky vanished, I was trudging deep into the Steens Mountains along with one-hundred other runners. Months of sweat and callused feet were spent preparing for this one day: Big Day. Stories told by past campers filled my ears, giving me nightmares and excitement. The first eighteen miles whizzed by as we hiked through the dehydrated bushes with the beating sun gazing down on us. The real story layed within the last couple of miles.…

The final shot of extra time came barreling at me. It was just to the right of me. So I did what goalkeepers do best and picked it out of the air and brought the ball along with my body to the ground. As I was getting up off the ground I heard the ear piercing sound of the final whistle. Everyone on the field, along with myself, stomachs sank because they knew the game was headed for a PK shootout. But for me it was different. This was my dream. This was all I dreamt about for 8 years of my life…

We still continue to travel and win many tournaments, last year we won our division. Playing and loving soccer is something that hasn’t changed in my life and I hope it…
