Quote from Scott Wollaston: “My first soccer coach told me that ‘soccer is the game of life’, and I have remembered that ever since. Soccer is the greatest game on the planet, and just has a way of teaching a child nearly every life lesson. I enjoy watching young players develop, not just as soccer players, but as individuals. I love seeing the ‘lightbulb’ constantly coming on inside a youth soccer player’s head, and the passion for the game growing at a rapid rate.”
