Microsoccer

In microsoccer, you've really got to get on top of the basics.

But conditioning to stay in top form . . .



. . . and looking cool in your soccer socks . . .



. . . can really only get you so far in microsoccer.

You've really got to get a handle on, well, not actually handling the ball.

  2. You want those sweet babies to play outside in the cold? Or the rain? I actually think they play indoors so that the coaches can keep better track of the players. As it is, the players like to wander over to the other game on the other side of the gym or out into the hallway.
