Playing the Game

Yesterday, I attempted to play an informal game of soccer with my fellow Info Arch class mates. My technique was laughable, and the entire experience was very eye openning. I realized that I know a bunch of facts about the game (ex. the deffinition of a banana kick, and that the Myan indians orginally played the game with human heads and goat heads)... however, I DON'T KNOW HOW TO PLAY THE GAME!!! Deffinitions, and rules in list form do not show the overall whole of the game of soccer.

Playing soccer with limited understanding of game was actually a wonderful aid in my research. I now know what I don't know, and what information is pertinent to playing the game. Obviously, the end diagram of soccer will not cover every little detail. I will need to boil down all the information, using only what information is needed.
