Football is the globe's most favored ball sport in terms of participants and viewers. Basic in its main rules and necessary gear, the game can be played nearly anywhere, including official football fields, gyms, streets, schoolyards, parks, or beaches. Football's regulatory organization, the Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA), projected that around 250 million football players and more than 1.3 billion individuals were "interested" in football at the dawn of the 21st century; in 2010, an overall television viewership exceeding 26 billion tuned in to watch football's top event, the every-four-years monthlong World Cup finals.
The figures by themselves are sufficient to persuade you that football is an excellent motivator for your students. This convenient ebook will enable you to instruct them on fundamental football vocabulary, explore various football-related idioms more thoroughly, and engage in practice exercises to reinforce that understanding. The solutions to the tasks are given at the conclusion.
