The team was divided into two small groups. It all started when two girls were on rival teams. They would try to spread rumors, leave people out of the conversation, and pretend the person wasn’t even there, sorta like they were invisible. Some people would have sleepovers with only three people and some would invite everyone except for three people on the team. It was all because of two girls who were causing drama and gossiping. They were the reason we were losing all the time. It was not because we were bad it was because we were not an actual team. Everyone would be mad at each other and not pass the ball to anyone or just not even try to make someone mad. One day the coach emailed my mom and asked if we would be willing to leave the team and switch to a new team called Arizona Power. My mom had gave me some subtle but noticeable hints by asking “Would you switch teams?”, “Do you want to try out for this team?” or “Would it be okay if you switched to a different

I threw my hands over my head and looked up to the sky trying to search for answers in the clouds. It had been about six months since I had played a decent soccer game, but this one was the worst from start to finish. It was one of those games that you wanted to forget forever and be blacked out drunk, so the memory of the night never comes back.

For many years, in the Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA) they have been discussing the inclusion of the video assistant referee (VAR) to the game. This is a new proposal which many want to start using in order to determine if the decisions of the head referee were correctly made. There are other types of technology that have been implemented in the game such as the K-Referee, which consists in a chip that detects if the ball has gotten into the goal or not. Although, other technologies have been implemented, this case is very different. Many people disagree with the VAR because they say it would damage the essence of the sport due to the fact that there would be many pauses in the game.
