My daughter is interested in playing college soccer. I've had to educate myself a lot about the woman's side of the sport. I can tell you that the best players come from the coasts.


The womens game is so diff. Girls from Europe come here to develop in college then go back to their clubs.

Yeah you are being creative with the information. The truth is that Soccer is on a major decline since 2008 (26% decline).
So here is some information for you.


Did you read the whole article or just the first paragraph?

That said, back to my original post, it really all depends on the position (in both sports) and scheme. Playing in the front 7 on defense vs. a wing-t or veer team is much more exhausting than playing soccer. It just is. Football is always played at full speed, soccer isn't. I've done both and am speaking from personal experience.


So based on your argument, a defensive lineman could easily play soccer. Yeah, I don't see it.
