<p><strong>Learning to Play Soccer</strong></p>
<p>I will not write here as a specialist soccer guru. My youngest son has just 8 yeas old and I saw him and his friends to ply soccer and thought: how he and all the kids learn to play soccer? </p>
<p>Well, frankly, is a mystery. And this mystery took me as an important question: how Brazil kids learn to play soccer? </p>
<p>I think it is not a simple answer to this question. In fact, if we knew the answer Brazilian soccer must never win the World Cup soccer. But as everyone knows, it is not fair. </p>
<p>However, there are things that intrigue us, not in Brazil because we have Pele, widely regarded as one of the greatest soccerer of all time, either because the Brazil soccer five times the world soccer champion. </p>
<p>This curiosity is when we see children playing soccer without shoes in the streets, improvised fields, earth, sand, gram, where, with a sort of dribble and set goals. </p>
<p>Ronaldo, Ronaldinho Gaucho, the two so-called best player World futboll, they played soccer with special skills since childhood. They are identified as a rising star. </p>
<p>What do they have other creature with millions of Brazilian children? I think this soccer start learning around 3 or 4 yeas old. I ask some children how they learned to play soccer and they told me it was with their fathers. Maybe at that age, they became aware of soccer skills. Anyway, I think the father and a ball as he introduced the boy to wake up soccer. </p>
<p>Today, we can also say that girls, to a lesser extent, are awaked for soccer. But the ratio of boys probably even greater. </p>
<p>On the other hand, soccer is a form of socialization of the child. There is a strong element so as to make new friendships, strengthen even older. And these friendships can also be considered an element of openness to the art of playing soccer. </p>
<p>When we look at small to play soccer and we find natural players, making his dribble, showing its affinity and ability with the ball, we have to imagine that beyond the soccer schools, the learning environment Internal been fundamental in learning these children. </p>
<p>In some ways, to play soccer with my son is very good and it takes me a sentimental player. My skills are not the same as when I was a child already, in my first time learning the art soccer. I remember playing soccer on the streets of my home. The memory came to me face my past. But these memories are gathered with my day, when I see my son to give me a dribble under my legs to score a goal and say he is a champion. Well, I think it is.</p>

<p><strong>Some Soccer History</strong></p>
<p>If you want to understand the history of soccer, we must admit that for some reason, humans have a natural need to revive things. Whether it &#8217;s release frustration, or simply for fun, we do not even notice. </p>
<p>How many times have you not walked on the street as a child (not only), just kicking that pebble or cones on the ground in front of you out of boredom. It &#8217;s natural wonders upon the basis of the history of soccer. </p>
<p>&#8211; When soccer was invented? </p>
<p>When we talk about the history of soccer many people regard England as the place that soccer was born and although it may be a true statement in a particular context, the truth is that the English were the first to organize around soccer 1863, but they did not invent it by saying. Thus, if 1863 is the year of the sport called , then what year was invented soccer and where? </p>
<p>Since soccer or soccer-likesports path can be traced back to ancient times, it &#8217;s difficult to pin-point a specific year, but historians of the phenomenon in general, chop it into 3 periods of time . </p>
<p>&#8211; History of soccer during antiquity </p>
<p>They might not have had our basic modern, ancient people, but make sure you know that their pleasure. And, you guessed it, kicking a ball around (of course, bullets were extremely primitive compared to what is used today) was considered a fun activity in many areas worldwide, most of them at the same time, without interaction from one another. </p>
<p>In the history of soccer the first written statement regarding the start of soccer comes from a Chinese military manual around 300 BC, which describes a practice known as cuju that involved kicking a leather ball through a hole in a silk fabric stretched between two poles. On the other side of the globe, the Americas, the Aztecs played a sport similar, although some compare it to more basketball soccer. </p>
<p>The goal is to hit the ball through a small circle of stones which was prominently on the scene &#8217;s walls, where the relationship with the basketball. </p>
<p>Now I n &#8216;t know you better, but it seems to me much more difficult to place a small leather ball exactly in the middle of a circle of stones that &#8217;s well above your head with your foot, to find a modern high-tech ball in a courtyard goal 8. </p>
<p>&#8211; History of soccer in Middle Age </p>
<p>In general, we think of medieval times, as a moment when war was seen as a necessity and a Working rather than a calamity. Despite being a very serious, dark period of time, a certain way medieval people have managed to take some time for some sports, especially soccer. </p>
<p>The forms of soccer played during this period are obviously incomparable to our current definition of sport, where they are generally classified as mob soccer . </p>
<p>While their fathers have fallen in war, children are often adjusted to seize a leather ball, click on the nearby field and start a war on the ground. The absence of rules often lead to fights and serious injuries and sport was considered dangerous in many places. </p>
<p>A clear example of what can be found in the British Museum in London, where an engraving shows a group of men who are fighting to win a leather ball with a second image shows a man with a broken arm. You do the math. </p>
<p>&#8211; Modern day soccer </p>
<p>As mentioned above, although we &#8216;t know when soccer was invented, we know when it was organized as a sport under a clear set of rules. Being a popular practice in England, soccer was played chaotic and often it would lead to the same or outside the arrivals battles similar to those that occur during soccer matches medieval. On each match, both teams would agree on a particular set of rules, but with the absence of an arbitrator arguments often spark. </p>
<p>To keep things in order, some English clubs met in London on October 26, 1863 to create a well-defined and universal rules for the game. </p>
<p>The soccer Association was born, and while their set of rules do not apply to all clubs immediately, in a few decades, soccer clubs has increased from amateurism to professionalism, their laws and driving restrictions has become the standard for everyone. </p>
<p>As you can see, there &#8217;s really not right how to respond to the When was invented soccer? Question and you &#8216;ll make your fair share of arguments to hand whatever period you think was the spark that caused the wildfire that soccer is today. </p>
<p>And you &#8216;ll probably agree with me on this point: it &#8217;s not really important to know when soccer was invented, but rather recognize that we are fortunate to be able to take advantage of this wonderful sport at its best, as we can in modern times.</p>

<p><strong>The Evolution of the Soccer Kit</strong></p>
<p>The soccer kit is not just the uniform that a soccer team wears when playing. It means so much more and has evolved from its humble beginning in much the same way as the soccer boot. Beginning life as a simple top to help distinguish one team&#8217;s players from the other team, the soccer shirt has become a piece of design and innovation and more importantly to soccer fans across the globe &#8211; a fashion accessory.</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
When soccer became an organised sport in the mid 1800s, the formation of the English Football Association brought many rules to the previously anarchic sport. However, uniforms or kits were not one of the early rules as players generally wore whatever they liked with a coloured cap or scarf used to distinguish themselves from other players. Soccer in England was played mainly by wealthy gentlemen who were financially able to purchase a suitable shirt in their club&#8217;s colours &#8211; with plain white t-shirts the most popular kit due to its ease to obtain and being relatively cheap.</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
 In a handbook published in 1867, it was advised that &#8216;if it can be previously so arranged, to have one side with striped jerseys of one colour, say red, and the other with another, say blue. This prevents confusion and wild attempts to wrest the ball from your neighbour.&#8217; However, from the inception of the Football Association in 1863, it still took over a decade for soccer kits to appear and become a regular part of the game.</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
The first kits that appeared were generally taken from public schools, with teams such as Blackburn Rovers adopting the colours initially of Cambridge University as many of their players were former students. Many of the original kits were garish and brash, shown by Reading&#8217;s use of a salmon pink, claret and blue uniform &#8211; a million miles from the simple royal blue and white of today.</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
As the sport moved away from a middle class hobby and became popular as a working class occupation, the kits were to evolve with the sport itself. Individuals would no longer be responsible for providing their own uniform, as clubs began to adopt specific colours and provide the kit for their team to wear.</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
Association football became increasingly popular with spectators and so the soccer players&#8217; attire was to be affected to improve the ease of viewing. This led to the abandonment of bright, gaudy colours in favour of distinctive primary uniforms to enable viewers to easily identify their team from a distance. </p>
<p>&#13;<br />
As the game evolved, the equipment used also changed, with the invention of shin pads by Sam Weller Widdowson in 1874. His use of cut down cricket pads outside of his stockings would also evolve into smaller pads worn inside the socks, a more familiar concept to the modern-day soccer player.</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
Shorts and socks were not considered a part of the team&#8217;s kit until around the turn of the century. In 1901, new regulations were introduced making socks officially part of the strip as well as so-called &#8216;knickers&#8217; not being required to be lower than the knee leading to the &#8217;soccer shorts&#8217; that we see today. It was in the first twenty years of the 20th Century that the soccer kit of today really began to take shape.</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
Forty years on from the first soccer kits, and with association football becomingly increasingly popular in the UK, soccer kit styles became more fashionable and design-conscious in the early 1900s. Popular shirt designs included the eternal favourite of vertical stripes, although the pinstripe of the 1800s was replaced with a wider stripe. The First World War prevented the UK soccer league from continuing from 1914 until the competition returned in 1919.</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
Between 1919 and the next suspension of professional soccer in 1939 with the outbreak of war with Germany, kit innovation had slowed down and the most notable change of the period occurred in the 1930s. Collars replaced crew necks and shorts were no longer plain with the inclusion of stripes down the side of the leg. The most influential change was shown by north London&#8217;s Arsenal when their kit had red shirts with contrasting white sleeves, a design that is still their home kit to this day.</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
Another introduction that appeared in this period was the introduction of shirt numbers, experimented with by Arsenal before becoming more common in 1939 before the Second World War. Numbers would go on to play a significant role in the merchandise sales of shirts in the latter part of the 20th century, but were used initially to allow easier identification of players.</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
After the end of World War II, rationing would play a major part in the development of soccer kits. Clubs would struggle to replace old kits due to clothing rations and so would play in the same kits for years or borrow full strips from other teams, including rugby clubs. KIts began to keep a level of consistency and teams opted to maintain a specific colour uniform which would become associated with their club.</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
The baggy, loose-fitting shorts of the early parts of the century were gradually replaced during the 1950s when kits became more streamlined to aid speed and agility of players. This change in style and design coincided with the European influence on the previously English-dominated sport as soccer started to evolve into a worldwide phenomenon.</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
The 1950s saw the introduction of the European Cup, renamed as the UEFA Champions League, won for the first five years by Spain&#8217;s all-white Real Madrid. As the game became publicised through the popularity of both club and country competitions, television also introduced soccer to a wider audience across the world. The sport gained followers from many countries and backgrounds and so the players&#8217; attire and the players themselves took on the role of soccer icons.</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
The arrival of the swinging 60s brought a new type of soccer player to the public&#8217;s attention as the sport&#8217;s popularity reached unprecedented highs. The club game was full of well-supported teams including the red of Liverpool and the black and blue stripes of Italy&#8217;s Internazionale. Alongside the club game, the FIFA World Cup brought a whole new level of interest with the global superstars of the Brazil squad including such greats as Pele and Garrincha.</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
The popularity of the sport, combined with the new levels of skill demonstrated by some of the new stars of soccer ensured that team kits would need to be as eye-catching and iconic as the players. With television coverage increasing, soccer teams would have to improve the quality of their kits as a symbol of the success and skill that the team possessed. Clubs would begin to realise the potential of a commercially appealing soccer kit in the future, and this belief began to take shape as the 1960s rolled on.</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
The 1960s saw the arrival of football superstars like George Best, raising the profile of the game to encompass more than just fans of the sport. Often referred to as the &#8216;fifth Beatle&#8217;, Best would be symbollic of the new appeal that the modern 60s soccer player had in society. Best&#8217;s fanbase extended past the Manchester United fanbase, in the same way that David Beckham&#8217;s celebrity status would engulf the world thirty years later.</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
With the new soccer celebrity, clubs would realise the commercial potential of their assets and would develop their kits and sales techniques to achieve maximum financial benefits. It wasn&#8217;t until 1975 that the first official shirts went on sale in England when Leeds United launched the first ever replica kit. The shirts were made by Admiral and featured a club badge, consequently raising the price for supporters wishing to wear their team&#8217;s colours. Previously able to buy a generic white shirt, Leeds fans would now have to spend more than twice as much money on the official replica shirt.</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
The arrival of the replica kit would have the biggest impact imaginable on the evolution soccer kit. Club badges would become a marketable aspect of the kit, with clubs seeking to register the copyright to protect their investment. Kit makers such as Admiral, Bukta and Umbro would waive their fees for producing the kit in return for a cut of the profits generated by shirt sales, a commercial practice that continues to this day.</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
Another practice that would enter the soccer kit design would be the introduction of shirt sponsors in the late 1970s. Initially, clubs would show the name of the kit manufacturers, as demonstrated by the first UK club sponsor of Hibernian FC with shirts showing Bukta on the chest. This quickly evolved into a marketing strategy for both club and sponsor, with the soccer team earning substantial financial rewards for advertising the sponsor&#8217;s name.</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
Kit sponsorship remained conservative in the UK, with teams only allowed to display one sponsor up until the 21st century when restrictions were stretched. Clubs would print sponsors on their shorts as well as on the backs of shirts &#8211; although this had been common practice in countries such as Mexico for years. Mexican club sides would display three or four sponsors on their shirts, often with two or three individual company names solely on the shirt&#8217;s front.</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
The 1980s saw a trend for slim-fitting shirts and smaller shorts, epitomised by the all red Liverpool kit worn by such Kop legends as Dalglish, Rush and Hansen. These kits gave way to the baggy, retro look of the 90s that was introduced when the Premier League was launched in 1992. Bold colours and unusual patterns were often chosen, sometimes as a second or third kit with a traditional design as the club&#8217;s main uniform.</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
Squad numbers were used by Premier League clubs in another attempt to boost revenue from shirt sales, as popular player&#8217;s names were blazened across the backs of supporters in the stands. With so many kits available for each club, shirt sales became a major part of the soccer club&#8217;s economy and so regular changes occur to boost club funds and profits. It is not unusual for a club to release two or three different shirt designs each year in an attempt to capitalise on the soccer shirt&#8217;s commercial draw.</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
So what does the future hold for the soccer shirt? With skin-tight lycra, baggy-retro look, sleeveless shirts and animal prints all making an appearance in the last 150 years, the possibilities are endless. As new fabrics, designs and styles become popular, the soccer shirt of the future holds so many possibilities.</p>

<p><strong>Women Soccer Uniform</strong></p>
<p>Â </p>
<p>There has always been a common perception that men enjoy an exclusive franchise on outdoor sports. Whether it is cricket, hockey, football, baseball, or soccer, men are seen dominating the sports world as players, referees, coaches and even as commentators.</p>
<p>Â </p>
<p>Well the time now has changed. The women are not behind men in any field not even in sports. We not only find women teams in different clubs, schools and colleges, but also they are now playing at national level.</p>
</p>
<p>It has been said that more people in the world play soccer than any other sport, and there is almost no reason to doubt the authenticity of that claim. With little more than an open field, a makeshift goal, and a ball, you can have a soccer game at just about any time. That is why; this game has become famous worldwide in a very little time. It has created hype among people of all age groups, being equally popular among both men and women.</p>
</p>
<p>Women started playing soccer as men did in England. Just because women may play soccer like men, it doesnâ??t mean that a woman wants to wear a manâ??s soccer gear.</p>
<p>Â </p>
<p>Women clothing choice has always been very different from that of men. If men admire blues and grays, girls go for pinks and reds. Therefore whether women are part of the soccer team or the die-hard fans of soccer, they want their soccer uniforms to look different, beautiful and elegant. Womenâ??s soccer gear apparel consist of jerseys, T-shirts, lined and knitted pants and sphere shorts, shoes tailored specifically for the female players.</p>
</p>
<p>Initially soccer uniforms were only worn by the soccer players. With the passage of time, as soccer became more popular and built its strong fan following, the fans of a particular team thought that the best way to show their allegiance to their team was by wearing their teamâ??s uniform. Many brands started manufacturing replica soccer uniforms for fans besides original soccer uniforms for the players. As a large part of the soccer fan following constitutes women and teenage girls, therefore, every soccer uniform selling company make sure that it offers a good selection of womenâ??s soccer wear as well.</p>
</p>
<p>The womenâ??s soccer uniform usually comes in combinations and contrasts of white and black with attractive pinks, reds, oranges, yellows and gold. Customized soccer uniforms are in great fashion now-a-days. Women being the fashion freaks love to get their uniforms customized according to their own style and taste. They get their uniforms personalized in diverse colors, with variety of designs and logos. Some even get different patterns imprinted or embroidered on their soccer shirts and jerseys. Today, a woman can find a pink jersey, a vibrant jersey, a fashion jersey, or a glitter jersey from virtually any team in the NFL, MLB, NHL, and NBA.</p>
</p>
<p>The women want their soccer shorts to completely complement the color scheme of the jersey or shirt. For that, women either opt for combinations like pinks and yellows, red and whites or prefer contrasts like red and gold, pink and blues etc. Women, like any other male soccer player, try to choose shorts which are not baggy because it does not provide any aid in improving the performance on the field. Rather it restricts the movement of the legs and it is the last thing which any soccer player wants. Women also love to wear matching tie and dyed soccer socks with their shirts and shorts.</p>
<p>Â </p>
<p>Although the girls and women want to wear trendy outfits, at the same time, comfort remains their first priority. Thatâ??s why like the menâ??s uniforms, womenâ??s uniforms are also made with lightweight materials, mostly 100% polyester so that they donâ??t get sticky due to sweating. Most jerseys now are made from synthetic material that will prevent moisture from being absorbed. Comfortable outfits are very important so that while on the field, the players could concentrate totally on the game rather than on their clothing.</p>
</p>
<p>Special uniforms are designed for women goalkeepers. The color of their uniform is kept different from the rest of the players on the field so that they remain easily identified by the referee. Their gloves are designed for goal keepers with narrow hands and most suitable for women. These gloves are usually made of highly durable foam that lasts 25-30% longer than the usual mega foam. The flexible and removable finger protectors also greatly reduce the chances of injury.</p>
</p>
<p>Soccer shoes are another vital part of the soccer uniform. While designing them for the women, along with the comfort, style is also kept in mind. In other words, companies try to design pairs that speak of both fashion and comfort. Comfort includes cooling, lightweight, great cushioning and layering that gives the player the most feel for the ball.</p>
<p>Â </p>
<p>These combined is just the ideal sporty, feminine style.</p>
</p>
<p>While choosing the appropriate women soccer uniform, internet is your best ally as here one can find hundreds of dealers online offering vast variety of soccer uniforms. You can browse their websites and find the one that best suits you. With a little exploration and intuition, you can find an ideal soccer uniform for yourself or for your team.</p>

<p><strong>Soccer Balls</strong></p>
<p>Selecting the right soccer ball boils down to choosing the size and construction of the ball based on the playerâ??s age and league requirements. The younger the player, the smaller the ball in most cases. Cost is also a big factor in selecting the correct soccer ball. Synthetic-leather balls are the most expensive and basic rubber-type soccer balls cost the least. Leather is no longer the favorite choice of soccer ball coverings because leather absorbs more moisture than synthetic soccer balls. A wet leather ball gets heavier over time and becomes much slower in play.</p>
<p>There are three basic categories of soccer balls. Match soccer balls used in professional international matches meet all Federation Internationale de Football Association (FIFA) requirements and are imprinted with the organizationâ??s logo on the ball. They are also the most expensive type of soccer ball. In the middle range are the competition balls used in college and high school competition. Recreational and training balls fill are the least expensive. </p>
<p>Most soccer balls are made of blends of polyurethane (PU), polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and common rubber or nylon. The best and most expensive PU balls feel like leather and are very firm, durable and water-resistant. The PVC balls are also very durable but are not as soft and responsive as the PU-blend balls. Common rubber and nylon balls can present a real value because they cost the least and last the longest. Although the rubber and nylon soccer balls lack the feel of match balls, they are fine for practice and training. </p>
<p>Soccer balls are all clearly marked in one of three sizes with the smaller the size number, the smaller the ball. Most all soccer balls come marked in sizes 3, 4 or 5. Size 3 soccer balls are used for beginners under 8 years old are 23-inches in circumference and weigh 12-ounces. Size 4 balls are designed for players between the ages of 8 and 12 and weigh about the same as the smaller balls at 12-ounces but are larger in circumference at just over 25-inches. Size 5 soccer balls are designed for use by all players 13 and older and are built to the international standard size for all sanctioned competition. The size 5 balls weigh about 15-ounces and have a circumference of 28-inches.</p>
<p>Additional factors to consider in soccer ball construction are the lining and inner bladder. The lining underneath the outer covering controls the shape and feel of the ball. The bladder contains the air inside the ball and also contributes to shape and responsiveness in play. Match soccer balls usually have four layers of a combined cotton/polyester-blend lining. Mid-range balls have two layers of cotton and two layers of polyester lining, and the least expensive balls have only two layers of polyester lining.</p>
<p>Soccer ball bladders come in both latex and butyl. The latex bladders are considered the best type of ball construction, but they donâ??t hold air as long as butyl bladders and need attention to proper inflation. Butyl or butyl-blend bladders hold their air better but are harder less responsive in play. The most common bladder found in mid-priced balls will usually be a blend of 80% butyl with 20% rubber.</p>
<p>The number of panels on a soccer ball can influence flight characteristics and how much control the player will have in play. A 32-panel ball is the type used in international soccer competition. Major League Soccer in the United States uses an 18-panel ball, and most indoor soccer leagues use 6-panel balls. The panels on high-end soccer balls are hand-stitched with synthetic thread. Mid-priced soccer balls have the same high-quality thread but are machine stitched to reduce cost. Low-cost practice and training balls will usually have panels that are glued together.</p>
<p>Adidas, Nike, Voit, Puma, Brine and Diadora all make good all-around quality balls that are relatively affordable, ranging from  to . Good practice balls can be purchased for as little as .
