Frequently Asked Questions
What strategies can I use to stay motivated and focused on improving my football skills?
To stay motivated and focused, it is important to set clear goals that you can achieve and track your progress.

Can you explain the offside rule in football?
The offside law is an important aspect of football that aims to prevent players gaining unfair advantage. A player in offside is one who has any part (head, body, feet) in the opposition’s half, which is closer to opponent’s line of goal than both the player and ball.
