Hi!  I really like to play soccer!
It looks like an exciting game, but I have never played. 
It's really popular in the US.  Over 24 million people play.
Have you ever played professionally or just for fun?
Never played professionally, but I have played in a city amateur league.
Since i've never played, I wonder how long it would take to get up to speed if I decided to?
If you live in Adelaide, it has the largest amateur soccer club in Australia
I'm in the U.S.  It looks like soccer is a good alternative to football?  You get to kick the ball without getting your head bashed.
The US has an adult soccer association.
Maybe I'll look for an older adult soccer association.  Thanks for the info.
