Football is the most popular game in England:one has only to go to one of the important matches to see this.Rich or poor, young or old, one can see them all there, shouting for one side of the other.

  To a stranger, one of the most surprising things about football in England is the great knowledge of the game which even the smallest boy seems to have.He can tell you the names of the players in most of the important teams; he has pictures of them and knows the results of large numbers of matches.He will tell you who he expects to win in such and such a match, and his opinion is usually as good as that of men three of four times his age.

  In England, it is believed that education is not only a matter of filling the boy’s mind with facts in the classroom; education also means the training of character; and one of the best ways of training character is by means of games.Where the boy and girl have to learn to work with others for his team, instead of for himself alone.

Don't Take the Fun Out of Youth Sports

  When I joined a private football league a few years ago, the sport meant everything to me. My coach(教練)said that I had lots of potential(潛力), and I became captain of my __1__. That was before all the fun was taken out of __2__.

  At first, everyone on the team got __3__ playing time. Then the team moved up to the top division after winning all its games, and the __4__started. Some parents, who had paid the coach extra so their daughters could have __5__ one-on-one training, got angry when she didn't give them more playing time in our __6__. The coach was replaced.

  The new coach, however, took all the fun out of the game: All we did during practice was __7__ I always wished to God that it would rain so we would not have the __8__. Of course, all teams run drills; they are __9__. But we ran so much that, afterwards, we had trouble __10__. Younger people shouldn't be doing exercises __11__ for 18-year-olds.

  I was very thin __12__ I started football, but as a member of this team I wouldn't eat much, be-cause I was afraid of being too __13__ to run. I feared making mistakes, and the added pressure caused me to make more than my usual __14__.

  Is all this pressure necessary? I __15__ up leaving the football team. Four other girls did the same, and two of them stopped playing football completely. That's __16__, because they had so much potential. They were just burned-out with all the pressure they __17__ from the coach or their parents.

  I continued playing football at school and __18__ my love for it. I joined a private team coached by my school coach. When I started playing __19__ him, he told me I needed to relax because I looked nervous. After I __20__ down, I played better. When you enjoy something, it's a lot easier to do it well.
