In this story, I will be talking about how the soccer ball has positively impacted my life. Also how the soccer ball has been in my life ever since I was young. But first I would like to thank my father and mother for introducing me to the sport. The first I ever touched a soccer ball was when I was 5. I still remember when I started playing because it was in my cousin's neighborhood. I also remember the soccer ball that we would use was my old one from Target. It wasn't as good as the ones from more popular soccer stores such as Dicks Sporting Goods, but it was decent. There were so many people that used to play and now everyone has grown up so we don't see each other anymore. But when I was 7 years old I joined a soccer club and I also joined with one of my cousins at the same time. We were a great team, winning medals and trophies regardless of us not having much equipment. Around covid was when i left the team, It felt as if someone took the love of my life away from me. I started to play again around 2021, there was a futsal team. This is where I learned that there were different types of soccer balls. The soccer ball you play indoors that is harder and smaller than a normal soccer ball is called a futsal ball. But currently I play for Twin Cities Academy and Saint Paul Blackhawks.
