any other questions and you might wanna go to goodle and search for soccer
Brunette27 answered Sunday July 24 2005, 11:02 am: Soccer is pretty easy to get the hang of. There aren't THAT many rules. Just like Basketball and Softball you have to play your position. There is a goalie, defense, midfield, and offense. The goalie well....... you already kno what a goalie does. The defense helps stop the ball from getting near the goal, the offense tries to score a goal in the other teams net, and the midfield is like a mix between defense and offense, which means they have to run A LOT. Another rule you should kno about is off-sides. In order to recieve the ball, there must be at least two of the opposing team members in front of you. When the ball goes out of bounds, the team who didn't kick it out, throws it back in. When the ball goes out on either side of the goal it is either a goal-kick or a corner-kick. It would be a corner-kick if the team who's goal it is kicked it out. The opposing team would kick it in from the corner of the field closest to where it went out. If the opposing team had kicked it out then it would be a goal kick. Everyone has to stand outside of the goalie box until the ball is kicked on the other side of it.
There is also penalties. There are indirect and direct ( the ref will call this ). Direct means that the player kicking it can shoot at the goal. Indirect means that the player kicking it has to pass it before a shot is taken.
