When you throw a ball in from the sideline, keep your feet on the ground and, even if your teammates are waving their arms in the middle of the field, throw the ball down the sideline. Field position is more important than possesion.

Hey just go for it! The coaches will be impressed that you're trying. Just have confidence. It doesn't matter what the older girls think. They'll be way impressed if you make the team and won't give you any trouble any more. So just try out! If you don't make it, you just practice and try out again next year. And that's the worst that could happen. So it's not so bad! I played soccer in high school too and I loved it!

Fifa.com is an awesome site to learn the rules of soccer. As I was looking over the internet I spotted a website that that talked a little about Fifa and showed/talked about rules and special plays of the game. There are also links on that website to further learn more about the rules of soccer. Hopefully this will help.

I would say try getting some people together and use the fence as a goal and play soccer.If you did not know this,a forward is the person who makes the goals, a defender is the one who helps the goalie but cannot touch the ball with hands, and you probably know what a goalie is. I say practice forwarding. It really helps you in soccer. \n          P.S. I play.

Ask the teams in your area if they hold try outs. If they do, go to one of them and if you are any good, they'll sig you up.That is the way it is in my part of the world.

I played keeper last year it a hard job and a easy job.Like the first guy said work on falling or they will score on you all today.Make sure to work on your punts and free kicks, goal kicks.Practice alot it does make a different.And when it one on one you versus the forward or the attacker charged them if your in HS most kid get scared and mess and stretch your body when you charged the attacker.And comfort in the goal box.Good luck

Allright dog, listen to me I am a expert on soccer. I could be the best soccer player in all the US with 16 y/oso listen carfully because this is not something you will do on the first time.\n\n          Look before I tell you the trick you have to be sure that you are willing to do it and you´ll have to spend days non-stop practicing it. If you are not willing to do this dont read the rest!\n\n          First off you´ll have to put yourself infront of the goal, probablly 20ft or 15ft away from the goal. Second you´ll have to give 3 to 4 wide steps to the back and 3 to 4 wide steps to your left (if right is your preferd leg) and right (if your lefty).\n\n          So then try to focus where you want your shot to go, maby right corner. So you just consentrate and look at the place you want to shoot, and then look at the right lower corner of the ball. Stay focused on only that exact point of the ball. Look at it for a few seconds and when you are ready don´t look at the goal again!!!!  That is why you should look at the goal one time before you look at the ball because once you look at the ball and look at the goal again you will kill your concentration.\n\n           So when you are ready and already looked at the ball start running toward the ball and prepare to shooy BUT never stop looking at the right lower corner of the ball and when you shoot hit the ball with the inside of your foot and almost at the tip of your shoe.\n\n          So when you make contact dont hit it directly because if you do tou are just making a normal shot!! so try to hit it at all of the side.\n\n          Don´t hit it hard!!!!!!!Just try to hit it soft but high with a lot of air so you can give the ball enough time to develop the curve.\n\n         So there you have it you just got an advice from the future best soccer palyer!!!!\nGood Luck! And dont give up!!!!!!!!!!!!ok

Hey, bldvl24, if soccer is pointless how come it's the most popular sport in the world BY FAR? \n\nFurthermore, if the goal is so wide as you describe, how come it's a LOW-SCORING sport? (Fortunately -- have you ever noticed how predictable and therefore boring your high-scoring sports are?)\n\nIn the future, try using some logic in your thinking, lest you become as moronic as the sports you like.

A coach who doesn't know the game?  I guess it's not so farfetched.  \n\nAnyway, the simplest, most basic way to describe soccer is as follows:  There's a field with a goal at each end.  There are two teams of eleven players each, and each team controls one of the goals.  Each team tries to score points by putting the ball in the opposing team's goal.  Each score is worth 1 point.  Whoever has the most points at the end of time wins.  \n\nTeams can move the ball around the field by kicking or heading the ball, but using arms or hands is not allowed.  The exception to this rule is the goalkeeper.  Each team selects a goalkeeper, who may use his/her hands within a small rectangular goalkeeper area extending about 5 meters from each goalpoast.\n\nThe referee can punish especially unfair play by showing the offending player a yellow card (for unsportsmanlike conduct)or red card (for dangerous, grossly unfair or brutal fouls) card; two yellow cards or one red card mean that the player is ejected from the game and may not be replaced by a sub from the bench.\n\nSomeone else can explain corner/free/goal/penalty kicks, the offside rule (uggh), and various tactical variants.\n\nThat's soccer!

how many teams are you on?? my friend is on 2 and i understand why your friends hate it. you never get to hang out with them or anything fun but if soccer is a big priority in your life don't quit. if you're really good you might even be able to go professional. just be sure not to talk about soccer too much in front of your friends so they don't get frustrated. especially the people you meet at the team and how someone or you scored a goal. just say a simple "we won our last game" and change the topic. i wish you the best of luck!!
