Footballer attempts to volley the ball
Football is the most popular sport in the world.
It consists of two teams of 11 trying to score more goals than the other team in a 90 minute game. Although competitive football has its regulations the reason why it is the most popular sport worldwide is because of the lack of materials needed to play.
This makes it cheap and therefore easy to play for anyone. All you need is a ball. It is a game that can be played on any surface whether it be grass, concrete or another surface.
Playing football not only gives you enjoyment but it also is a hobby that can improve physical fitness. The constant aspect of running increases stamina and can improve explosive speed when it required that you sprint. It also build leg muscle because kicking the ball requires strength to turn and balance on one leg.
Playing football just for fun is very rewarding but playing competitively can be be even more rewarding.
Competitive football takes up more personal time because often there are training sessions that go along with matches. These cost more money but can be provide a lot more satisfaction. Training sessions will boost your skills and fitness and matches see you be entered into competitions and leagues. These things combined can help fitness, can give you a winning feeling and can also see you make friends and build up confidence in social situations.
