Dear students，
Most of us get some exercise walking or riding our bikes to school，but just that is not enough.Why not get into shape by playing the most popular sport in the world—soccer?
Two weeks ago，Mr Goldstein，the physical education teacher，posted a notice about an exciting new soccer club (for Grades 10－12)．To join，all you have to do is sign your name and be at school for the fun of it on Saturday mornings.You’ll make new friends and share information about famous teams and players.
Mr Goldstein will teach，so you’ll learn basic skills and new techniques to improve your game.That’s good news because soccer is a game you can love three seasons a year.The only time you can’t play is when there is snow.
However，it is hard to believe that only nineteen people signed up for the new club.Maybe kids don’t want to give up their Saturday mornings.But if you think about how we spend Saturday mornings now，soccer looks good.Doing housework and watching TV are not as much fun as playing soccer with friends.If you didn’t sign up because you’ve never played soccer before，don’t worry.Beginners are welcome and Mr Goldstein will give you more help.
Just act now! The equipment is cheap.All you have to bring is your feet.
