About this course

An introduction to the discipline of physical education through the game of soccer, including a global perspective and the contributions of both male and female soccer experts and players.

Tactical skills and comprehensive team strategies will be practiced and performed. There will be a discussion introducing additional laws of the game, equipment, fair play, flexibility, nutrition, and the nuances of the game. Use of the Internet and other media sources will be encouraged to further understand the world's most popular game.
