Soccer Equipment - What Are The Essentials?
For the kids of today, soccer is a fabulous sporting choice because you need very little equipment to play it. Essentially, you need a ball and some space - and that's it. Head into your local soccer supply store, though, and you will soon start to believe that you must have a very large bank balance to afford all the bits and pieces the salesman will say you need to play the game.
The truth is that if your child is just likes to kick around a soccer ball, you probably don't need much in the way of soccer equipment. But if your child wants to join a team and start some soccer training, then it's worth spending a few dollars to be certain they have good quality gear.
If your child is planning to join a team, then you should expect the team will have a uniform. Generally this will include a shirt, shorts and matching socks. Some teams are happy to use fairly generic uniform, others will have a personalised design. It might be possible for you to buy a second hand uniform from another team member who has outgrown theirs - it's certainly worth a try!
Shoes are the next item on the list. It's possible to play soccer in standard trainers, but it may not be a good idea for your child's feet and ankles. Grass can be slippery if it's a little bit wet, and soccer often involves rapid changes of direction. If you can manage, it's worthwhile buying soccer footwear with cleats. These will help to provide much better traction on grass and reduce the risk of slipping over and twisted ankles. It's worth spending a few extra dollars to get a good quality pair, because they will certainly be subject to some tough punishment!
Shin guards are optional, but are a good idea even at the beginning level. They need to be firm, but still allow enough movement and flexibility to not interfere with the player's movement. It's important to try them on to make sure they are the right fit for your child.
If your child needs a soccer ball to practice with at home, then check what size ball is used for games. Smaller children use a smaller size soccer ball, and it's important to practice with the same size ball at home for consistency. If your child already has a standard size ball it may still be worth buying a smaller one to match what they use with their team.
Some other soccer equipment that you can also consider, but which falls into the category of "likes" rather than necessary equipment, includes:
- Practice goal - but you'll need some space to use it!
- Soccer equipment bag
- Soccer cones for drill practice
When your child starts a new interest, like soccer, it can seem a little overwhelming in the beginning to buy all the essential equipment. But if you can afford to purchase top quality soccer equipment then your investment will pay you back with interest by withstanding a lot of the rough usage and energetic activity that goes with soccer without falling apart. Better to buy new soccer equipment because your child has outgrown it, instead of because it's fallen apart.

How does ions effect the electron configuration, short hand?
This is not homework,nI have a test tomorrow.The example I found was
Tin:
Sn+4 ion: [Kr] 4d10
Sn+2 ion: [Kr] 5s2 4d10
I just don't get why and how they are different, please help, thank you so much.
The Sn+2 ion has 2 more elections than the Sn+4 ion. These two extra elections occupy the 5s orbital, resulting in the 5s2 notation being added.
