Soccer Songs That Make the Game More Exciting

Soccer songs are well-known all over the world. They bring more intensity to the sport which has long been associated with thrill and excitement. Football chants are combined with lots of gimmicks to boost the confidence of the various football teams. Soccer is the most watched and followed sport in the world so that every fan wants to be a part of it in any way they can.
In Argentina, Brazil, France, United Kingdom, Japan, Korea and many other countries, people play soccer, watch soccer games, and even sing football songs in public places. Soccer is often the topic friends discuss over meals and soccer news is read in every street corner. Practically, soccer has been a constant part of the people's lives and in several countries the game has even become a part of their culture. Football right now is already more than just a leisure activity. It is a way of life.
The loud singing and cheering inject a unique form of excitement and exhilarating suspense to the out field. A die-hard fan enjoys soccer games more when he or she shares

Winning Youth Soccer Styles of Play

As you begin to assess your youth soccer team's abilities, you should start to get a better feel for what style of play they are best suited to play. One of the more effective soccer tactics is to be able to adjust to your opponent, and to use different styles of play to keep them off balance.
As a youth soccer coach you need to be able to decide which style of play will work best for your team. There are different factors that will affect that decision. Everything from the abilities of your players, to the weather, to the condition of the soccer field will play into your decision.
Styles of play refers to the way your youth soccer team plays together during the game. It is your job as the youth soccer coach to determine which style to use.
Attacking Styles of Play
Direct Attack
Soccer teams will use a direct attack to try to beat the defense by playing long passes. This is not a dump-and-run offense. These are long, accurate passes to players making runs toward the goal, that penetrate the defense.
The objective is to push the ball forward with few passes, and only a few players touching the ball. By quickly passing the ball through the defense you can attack the goal before the defense has an opportunity to drop back to assist the goalkeeper.
Your job as the youth soccer coach is to include drills in

Tom Hicks & Corinthians

It seems Tom Hicks leaves a trail of devastation wherever he goes. His disastrous foray into the Brazilian football market as chairman of Hicks, Muse, Tate & Furst left Corinthians, second most popular club in Brazil, in a state of turmoil.
The parallels between what happened to Corinthians and what is currently happening at Liverpool are unsettling to say the least:
* There was the initial blaze of publicity and fanfare when the company bought the club in 1999, with promises of big spending on the best players and the construction of a brand new 45,000 seater stadium in the suburbs of Sao Paulo.
* There was an initial capital investment to tie down existing players and to finance the purchase one or two other additional players.
* The economics behind the Corinthians deal appeared to be based on ridiculously rudimentary logic: "If you add up all the fans of professional baseball, basketball, football and hockey in the United States, that number is lower than the number of Brazilians who are soccer fans." Clearly, no proper risk analysis had been undertaken - a situation which resonates with the due diligence period of 3 days prior to the purchase of Liverpool.
* This flimsy approach was reinforced by the

Soccer Referee Uniforms

Here is what you will need
Soccer referee uniforms will let you be comfortable while on the field. The colors will distinguish you from the soccer players so you don't get tackled.
Referee Shirt
The soccer referee shirt is made to set you apart from the teams that are playing. There are numerous color combinations available. The color you wear will depend on the colors that the soccer teams are wearing.

Who Invented the Soccer Ball?

It would be nice if you could pinpoint exactly which person came up with soccer and indeed who invented the soccer ball. Just like the game itself though, the balls have simply been subject to a long process of development over hundreds of years. Rather than one person creating the soccer ball as we know it, therefore, the designs have changed over time and are not generally credited to an individual. Instead of naming a creator of the soccer ball then, we can take a brief look into its long journey.

At first, soccer balls were merely animal bladders wrapped in leather! In the 1600s for example, the bladder of a 'pallone'- an early Italian soccer ball- had to be inflated. These ancient balls were laced together manually, often lost shape with heavy use and became saturated with water when it rained. For a long time, even right up to the 1940s, you would have found soccer balls heavy and very difficult to play with.

More recently, with improved technology, soccer balls have developed into a light-weight, waterproof form. As you can imagine this now makes life much easier for strikers and harder for goalkeepers- this is just the game as we know it today!

Hopefully you can see that we can't determine who invented the soccer ball, because its development has just been a long process over time. Long ago people would just kick around animal bladders because these were all they had to play with. Nowadays we have better technology, so you can play with the plastic-coated, rapid balls that make the game much more exciting for all involved!

Liverpool Home Kit 2010-12

Liverpool Home Kit 2010-12
     As a little taster for a more in depth review of a selection of 10-11 season kits that will be coming shortly I thought I’d just feature the new adidas Liverpool home kit for 2010-12 (yes, two seasons!!)

 The strip was one of the earliest to be involved a few months ago and despite being slightly underwhelmed the design (like most of adidas’ recent strips actually) has really grown on me. Its a design that just screams “Liverpool” despite the arrival of new sponsors Standard Chartered who replace the old familiar Carlsberg. The shirt features a simple crew neck devoid of any trim and a diamond shadow
