5 reasons why sending your kid to football (soccer) practice is a good idea

Now that the FIFA football worldcup is at a crucial point we thought it's a good idea to show our support for the game by encouraging parents to send their kids to football practice so that future teams have got lots of talented players to send to the world cup :-) This is particularly important for the All Whites, Socceroos and the US team (whatever they are called?!?) as football is sadly not the #1 sport in New Zealand, Australia and the USA. So here's our cheeky list of reasons why parents should send their kids to football practice:

1) Football players make heaps more money than any other sport-pros
2) Unlike Cricket or Curling, Football is not boring ... so having to sit through hundreds of matches watching your little champ play is not going to do your head in
3) Travel the world ... literally every country in the world has a professional football league ... your offspring could end up playing football all over the world (and getting paid for it) and you get to travel along as their manager
4) The risk of injury when playing Football is minute compared to Rugby, Aussie Rules or American Football ... so no broken noses and fractured skulls (see next point)
5) Football players are better looking than Rugby players

:-)

Go the All Whites!
