Some are faced with the decision whether to play soccer or football.
He had finally been able to fulfill his dreams. Kevin Utz of the Methacton Wolverines was able to play football for the first time. The only catch was that he had to not play soccer for a year. Kevin said "it was pretty easy to pick football because I was just trying it out". Picking next year will be easier because of the knowledge of how much effort football is.
Kevin is not the only person who has to choose. Anthony Delvecchio is playing football for Norristown High school. He has played soccer before. Another friend of mine has also had to make the decision whether to play soccer or football. Everybody has to make his or her own decision. Whether you choose soccer or football it's all up to which one you pick.
You may be surprised to learn that many more people do dancing than you think. In our home school co-op alone people ranging from 9-adult attend lessons. There are many types of dancing for all styles and personalities. There is jazz, Irish, tap, ballet, renaissance, ballroom, swing, country, and square dancing just to name a few. In ballet you do performances like the Nutcracker while in ballroom dancing you will learn how to dance at weddings. If you like upbeat dancing try Irish step dancing, country, or square dancing. I listed some forms of dancing. There are many others. Each one is different but they all are fun family ways to get exercise.
