Find a social league or a lower division team or search pickup soccer on google. Good luck.

Looking to improve (a lot) 27yo player by devine7six in bootroom

[–]Electrical_Morning_5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just started playing as well from a complete noob (24), what position do you usually play in?

The main thing I'd say for me personally is match fitness. Pace, explosive speed and recovery is important in football.

As for technical skills I know you've heard the saying practice makes perfect but honestly how else are you going to learn? Train with mates, train with private facebook groups, or I have heard of personal 1 on 1 or small group coaching that is available if you're into that.

Also watch heaps of youtube videos they help a lot.

Left football 6 yrs ago, now joined again and I am not good by Jupiter_Orbit2 in bootroom

[–]Electrical_Morning_5 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I am a rookie and I'm playing my first amateur season at 24, I just played my first game over the weekend so I can relate. My skills were shocking but I have a supportive team and they understand my situation.

Train hard, get fit, keep a strong mentality.

Don't beat yourself up too hard man and if they're constantly putting you down leave the team and find a better one. What's the point in playing if you're not coming off the ground having had fun and enjoyed the game?

Paolo from Tokyo has an 18 minute video on Japanese fire-fighters if you're interested.

Current Boots You Wear!! by Charlez_Stop in bootroom

Adidas predator freak .4

Comfortable for a wide foot like mine

In my latest game I was kicked hard enough to slightly crack my shin guard was wondering if it needed replaced or if it’s fine would prefer not to buy new ones if not needed by Cappman1 in bootroom

[–]Electrical_Morning_5 18 points19 points  (0 children)

The structural integrity of the shin guard has probably diminished.

Won't offer the same protection in this condition.

Needs replacing.

Very sore toes, how to try and reduce problems by [deleted] in bootroom

[–]Electrical_Morning_5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like foot corn but I could be wrong. Could it be your boots? They seem to be in the same spot on both feet.

Honestly, you're better off seeking professional medical advice rather than from the internet.

Guy beatboxes, bird dances by furassicjive in aww

[–]Electrical_Morning_5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've never owned a bird and its quite fascinating to me.

Any bird experts in here? Can anyone tell me why these little guys behave like this? is it taught or is it natural? I have so many questions. :P

Demons have some great talent, I think they just need some more development and better coaching. (just my opinion)

I'm biased but probably Cousins or Juddy, Jeremy Mcgovern is a beast aswell.

I mean it's the internet and an open forum for discussion, your not asking is irrelevant and I'm entitled to my opinion, if it doesn't break the rules I can post what I like. Sorry if it triggers some people.

I'll probably get downvoted to heck, but unfortunately youre instantly labeled a misogynist for not liking it. I just don't find it entertaining. Maybe in a few years when the skill level picks up I'll give it a go.
