Soccer is a team sport of only 11 players(Including the goalkeeper) playing on the field at a time.  There are many positions, such as right center, left center, and front center. These are just some of the positions that are in soccer. 

Soccer originated about 2,000 years ago, in ancient China. And, it has gathered about 250 million players in more than 200 countries. Then, England transitioned it around the globe, eventually reaching Europe and across the Atlantic. Unfortunately, it isn’t as popular in America as it is in other countries.

One of the reasons soccer is so popular is that it’s available to almost anyone. It’s not as hard to set up as many other sports, such as tennis or volleyball. It can be played anywhere, and doesn’t need much equipment. 

As time went by, it developed more and more rules. Eventually becoming an official sport. Now, people play it competitively or just for fun!
