Inquiry Project: Soccer helps bring people together
Sports are something that are a big part of my life. I love all types of sports and have played many different sports competitively. I believe that sports are a good way to help bring people together. The love for sports is something that many people have in common. Out of all the sports I have played soccer is my favorite. Mainly because it's the sport I grew up playing. Soccer is a sport that helps bring people together. I have made many friends just through soccer alone. As soon as you find out someone likes soccer you instantly feel a connection with that person and it gives you a reason to talk to them and want to become friends. During the 2010 World Cup the who continent of Africa came together and became one. They called themselves the rainbow nation. It didn't matter which country from Africa was playing they all supported that team. Soccer has also been used in Northern Israel to bring Jews and Arabs together and it has been very successful. Soccer is a power tool that if used right can help bring people together

I also have competitively participated in many different sports, such as soccer, cheer, and track & field. From experience all soccer teams I've been on felt like a family, and I agree it brings people together. Soccer doesn't only bring the players together, but the people watching too such as fans or parents.
