Although soccer is an international sport and is possibly the most popular sport worldwide, it has never really caught on in the USA as neither a participant nor a spectator sport. This is true in spite of the fact that there have been organizations trying to force it upon out kids from very early ages.
Somehow certain groups have been trying to convince parents that it is much nicer to have your kids playing soccer than the four major sports that are popular in this country.
