My father was a soccer player. All my friends played basketball though, so I stuck with basketball.

I played soccer, recreationally, in college.

I went to my first college to play soccer.

I grew up in Europe, and soccer was the first organized game I played. When we moved back to the U.S. in the middle of 4th grade, I switched to American football and stopped playing competitively until college, when I played intramurals.

I grew up playing soccer and always loved playing it.

I still regret that I never played soccer in high school. I chose basketball over soccer.

I played all kinds of sports when I was young: tennis, handball, basketball, some soccer. I focused on basketball when I was 16 or 17 and then came to the U.S. when I was 20.

I've played soccer since I was five.

We played soccer a lot with our friends and at school. We weren't on an official team or anything, but we'd definitely be up for it in gym or in after-school pickup games where we live.
