Fresh Air and Fun for the Family

Watching games on television can be a very good learning experience as I have mentioned in an earlier blog. You know what an even better way to watch soccer is? IN PERSON! Go check out a local game in your area whether it's an MLS game, USL game, or PDL game. USL (United Soccer Leagues) makes up the second and third division of professional soccer in the United States. PDL (Premier Development League) is a summer league that all the top college players compete in to get in shape for their upcoming season.
While you're in the stadium you can see just how quickly the players move the ball, how athletic the players are, and hear the constant communication that takes place during a game. At the same time, it's a great chance to spend time with the family and be part of a great sports atmosphere! Schedules of local games can be found on www.mlsnet.com or www.uslsoccer.com.
