How does the region in which one lives dictate the sport in which they will play?

Then you have the hockey teams across the north... And soccer in Suburbia. Volleyball seems to be more coastal.\n\nI couldn't find any websites on it though. But I would guess that since sports were popular long before the days when travel was easy... it has to do with weather.

If you reside in the country for (I think) more than 7 years, you can become a national player if you become a resident.\n\nAs for the question of "Who can they play for?" the answer lies in parents and grandparents. Michael Owen was actually born in Wales, and I'm sure Wayne Rooney (Rooney is an Irish name) has Irish heritage, he could probably have played for them if he'd wished.\n\nAnother interesting point - Lukas Podolski, Oliver Neuville and Miroslav Klose were all born in Poland, yet they play for Germany due to their ancestry.

The purpose for each depends on the region.

Italia Serie A....you have all the great players from other countries going to play there for example....from the Brazil national team you have Adriano and Kaka, from Czech Rep you have the captain Pavel Nedved, from France Trezeguet plus the native players go on and on such as Totti, Del Piero, Maldini, and many others.  Also players such as Ronaldo and Zidane have played there.  Atmosphere and justthe league all together is amazing.

If they choose to compete as separate nations, that's fine.  Besides, a UK team would be dominated by the English, so what benefit would Scottish, Northern Irish, and Welsh players get?

Yes they can,  However this has to be ageed between both teams and would only be if the game was a friendly.  I've done it. \n\nAlso in many testimonail matches for a player It has been known that they play one half for one team then swap at half time and play for the other side.\n\nIn a normal domestic league game the answer would be no.

other countires don't have the enjoyment of multiple sports like us. their main sport is soccer and they may have been born to have a passion for it like their ancestors. however in the US, many kids could have been born to have a passion for other sports that we enjoy here in america.

depending what area you live in if you have a look in local newspapers it will tell you what leagues there are in the area then you can cotact them through the newspapers web site or you can go along to watch local matches and ask one of the managers there.

You answered your own question, dude. Germany would be the place to be. You get to go sightseeing...in Europe...and you get to enjoy the fever pitch of some of the most adoring fans in any sport. I love baseball too. But the WBC isn't exactly the insanity that is the World Cup.

0, Britain doesnt play. England, Scotland, and Wales play separately.

Really interesting question.  Thinking about it, sports really do serve as a vehicle to bridge cultural gaps.  By participating in the same leisure activites, it lets people from different cultures realize that maybe they are not too different.  In addition, fans respect great players of the games they follow regardless of where they live or come from; during international events (ie Olympics) or by having international players on local teams, people become more interested in the personal stories of these players and thus more interested/more accepting of other cultures.
