The Dangers of Soccer

Soccer (known almost everywhere else as Football) is the world's most popular sport, yet here in the States its popularity is largely limited to Middle and High School students. Perhaps these videos can teach us why.

• This is a glorious example of the grace and majesty a well played game can take, and the danger out there for the unsuspecting player

• The unexpected can occur even during a slow point in the game.

• The danger can come from anywhere, even when you are at practice.

• Experience the visual impact, if not the stinging cheek, of a full-on impact.

• Remember, parents and coaches, it is our duty to teach or children courage in the face of the danger of the soccer field.
