== == A game is overseen by a referee who has the right to enforce the rules of the games. The primary rule is that all players other than the goal keeper are not allowed to handle the ball with their hands or arms during play. Although most players usually use their feet to move the ball around, players are allowed to use any part of their bodies other than their hands or arms. Each team consists of, at most, eleven players, one of whom must be the goal keeper. There is an equal amount of players on either team. Players may be switched with substitutes during the course of the game. General reasons for a substitution include injury or tiredness or inefficiency. The equipment that is required to wear includes uniform shirt, shorts and socks, footwear and adequate shin guards. Players are prohibited from wearing things such as jewelry or watches as to protect all players including themselves. The major skills that are needed to play soccer are control and speed. You must have control over the ball and speed as you run and kick the ball at the same time. In soccer, you run which causes you to sweat, which rids the body of impurities.
