SOCCER

Do you like soccer or baseball better? If you said soccer I would agree with you because you get more exercise in soccer than in baseball.

You do more things with you body in soccer, like running, kicking, jumping, etc. Also you have to have better footwork than in baseball. Finally, you have to be more flexible, especially if you are playing goalie.

You run more in soccer than baseball and here are reasons that support this statement. 1) You are on the field longer. 2) The field is a lot larger. 3) In baseball, you may not run at all.

You get more playing time in soccer than baseball. This is why I think so. First, there are not as many players on a soccer team as on a baseball team. Second, there is less time total for a soccer game, but substitutions are made more frequently in soccer. Finally, the maximum number of offensive baseball players on the field at any given time is four.

The best part about soccer is scoring goals and helping your team win. Oh, sorry, I got to go kick the game-winning goal.
