Kid's soccer has exploded onto the sporting scene and the numbers participating in the sport has increased exponentially. Many of the other ball codes are left scratching their head. How do you compete against the beautiful world game?

It might be fair to say that you can't. Inflated pay packets, rock star lifestyles and beautiful women come hand in hand with soccer. But you might question the motives of the young players participating in the game. Surely these kids are not playing soccer for the fortune and fame.

The answer to this question is simple. Young kids play soccer because it's fun. The game of soccer involves all the players simultaneously and is fast paced to keep the young minds stimulated long enough to deter them from misbehaving.

The requirements to play soccer are minimal. It does not require expensive protective equipment or helmets; it only demands a round ball and two legs that bend at the knees. Also the game of soccer can be played in any location and at any time. Places like the expensive coaching academies to the slumps and alley ways of Brazil.

So what can participating in soccer do for you and your child? Well for starters it keeps you active and healthy. Playing sport lowers the risk of diseases and helps maintain a healthy mind. It's been proven through research and sciences so don't just take my word for it.

It allows players to develop social skills and socialize with other like minded individuals. Some of the friends you make playing soccer will last a life time. The question that needs to be asked is this, can you afford not to play soccer?

Discipline, motivation and goal setting are just a few of the traits you will pick up playing soccer. Not to mention, strength, fitness and a healthy lifestyle. Make sure you commit to soccer because the long term benefits simply outweigh any game that is currently being offered by PlayStation.
