mercury CUP 2020 is on the ice. Nevertheless, the book of values is to illuminate with stories from the youth soccer are the essential things of Sports.

the age of 13 ready for the professional sports?

Shhh, don’t tell. Otherwise, you are tomorrow before the door, the hyenas, the spend as a consultant and Manager. We have discovered a huge Talent. A boy that has everything you need to be in top-level sport to be successful. Callousness, self-assertion, one that uses each and every Chance.

13 years, almost ripe for the professional business. You don’t believe? Well, then we tell this story: The Match was on a knife-edge. In the case of a two-fight a defensive player injured himself, was lying, the game ran on and on, until one of them decided to kick the Ball towards the touchline, in order to allow a treatment.

“Somehow clever, the Boy”

All turned, looked after the injured. Only a not. The sprinted suddenly going, grabbed the leather just in front of the line, moved to the inside and pushed the Ball to the surprised goalkeeper in the past and into the net. The referee decided, of necessity, on goal, the Ball had left the field of play yet.

The Boy grinned broadly and allowed himself to celebrate by his fellow players, his coaches and the parents on the side line, knocking enthusiastically on the leg. “Somehow clever, the Boy,” they cried, and made fun of puzzled faces of your opponents.

If the Maserati is in the shop…

The Bub will make its way, for sure. He has been recognized by the age of 13, what is important in Sport as in life.

Everywhere he will have the nose in front, he will never one day stand on the highway in a traffic jam at the very back, because he is clever as he – and a broad grin on the lane to all over will travel.

He will, when the Maserati is in the shop or driving licence straight away, even in the subway always a seat get hold of, because he is exploited quite clever the clunkiness of older people when Boarding.

sports as a reflection of society

He will use, quite clever, all the legal ways of tax saving, and when shopping, never have to queue.

He will, the Sport is considered a mirror image of society, everywhere prevail. Admittedly, a little bit at the expense of those who are not so clever, but he will say grinning: “tough luck.”

“cool guys” like cyclist Lance Armstrong, the top-of-sports

he also has his players say when you asked him if he had acted a bit unsportsmanlike.

The top-level sport needs so clever boys, the sailing like the swallows through the penalty box and intentional hand game on the line never, never, never, cool types such as the cyclist Lance Armstrong who know that success justifies, ultimately, all of the funds would admit.

Clever you must be. Also to not get caught, if you pumped once again full up to the top in a doping control. There is, finally, this masking means that you can get the team doctor determined.

Cleverness vs. Fairness

impertinence wins, pardon me, the Cleverness that is in modern German. “Clever” is a fashion word in the Sport. According to the foreign words the dictionary it means “wise, clever”. Still has a different meaning, namely, “cunning, crafty”, but you should see everything a little bit positive.

So we are pleased with the parents about this “clever, clever” young, can not know each other have fun so laugh about the naivety of his opponents, the casting is still so weird sporting values such as Fairness, but Cleverness.

to be Determined to bring it never so much as he. Actually, to him, there would have to be long-enquiries from Clubs from the Bundesliga and the Manager would have to tear this Talent.
