Hey-hoe! yep, i know thats an American site but i wanted to make a soccer thread since im a big fan of this game.

Anyway, i also know there's some fella members whos into this game too.
Runningman coaches kids!! thats great man, how did you get in this? tell something about it! Fragolino you were a pro, right? Italianstallion, Ckn... others? Lets talk about this beautiful sport!
i also curios about soccer in US!

I played in a first division team for 3 years (under-18). In my country (Hungary) football was always on top till about the 80's. but by now - i dont know how - we're 1 of the worsts (not only in soccer)

and thats really frustrating, i love this game so much and absolutely no football here. So what can i do... i'm a big fan of English, Italian and Holland football.

Cheers!! my no1 fav is Milan since i saw that team with Gullit, Rijkaard, Van Basten, Tassotti, Massaro - damn that was greatness, remember? This Ancelotti team still needs some young players, esp. in defence i think. That Inter match was a catastrophe.

Great thread! I will be checking this one regularly.

I love this sport. I have been playing since I was six - I was fortunate enough to play for a team that traveled throughout the Western US and also won some state championships here and there. The first few months I was back from college I ran into a friend and started coaching with him that season. Since then (nearly 7 years ago) I have been coaching girls for the same club I played for as a kid. We are traveling to many of the tournaments I played in a while back.

I have coached all ages from 9 through 17. I am also the head coach of a girls varsity high school team. It's a pretty cool deal - I got the job a few months ago and "inherit" a program that has won the last two high school state championships. No pressure at all, right?!
