Introduction
Throughout social history, there has not been an aspect that has had massive impacts on the culture like sports. The impact that sports have had in the human history are immense and speak to the subtle elements that working as team brings about (Alexander, 2016). Ideally, it is not just the teams in the field that are working together (Alexander, 2016). Like most organized activities, sports are associated with team members, sponsors, experts in the various fields of profession such as doctors, architects, managers, financial analysts, social workers, legal experts, business analysts, operational strategists and the fans among so many others. There is always an entire ecosystem of professionals around any given sport. What is important though is the impact such sports have on the society. The American society has had a history in sports, and the impact of the same has been quite significant on the American culture. One sport in particular though, soccer, has not had massive impact on the culture and it would be crucial to create the elemental background for the same.

Most importantly it has a presence that spreads across the globe. As such, it is crucial to point out that soccer is a popular sport compared to most others on the global scale, an aspect that needs to change in the United States (World-guides.com, 2016). This also point to the massive support that the sport is accorded on a global scale, which can be seen during the world cup competitions or even the English leagues. It is also important to consider that the sport is relatively easy to learn and supports fluidity in the play, which is quite appealing to most people. It is also a sport that relies heavily on the skills and the creativity of the players rather than athleticism and fitness, an aspect that could not be said in the same breath as one of the most popular sport in America, Basketball, which significantly relies on height. Compared to other sports such as the American football, soccer does not have much life threatening injuries. It is also a sport that attracts international competitions and as such will have a far reaching social, cultural and economic effect.
