Soccer is a team sport where players are involved in an activity that pits them against an opponent. It is about competition and cooperation. It is also a leisure game with lots of fun. To play a game of soccer you first need a ball. Then an opponent. Add a field, a couple of goals across from each other, mix in a few soccer rules and you have a game of one side against another side. Soccer involves the element "chaos." Opponents, team mates and the ball are all moving in different directions. Players, cheerleaders and coaches are shouting different instructions and information. Bringing "order out of chaos" is an important skill in learning how to play the game.
