    Soccer is related to math in many ways. Let us look at a few examples:

    1. To mark the soccer field, we have to find the area A = L x W
    2. To make the half way line, we will have to divide the area in half.
    3. Number of team mates in a team (11)
    4. Number of goals that each team has shot
    5. The angle from which the penalty kick is shot
    6. Duration of the game (90mins.)

    Soccer is a physical activity, so enough of it will get you enough exercise to burn calories. I f you burn calories you do not get fat. To be in good shape means that you are healthy. If you eat too much and don’t get physical exercise, you will not be in good shape.
    2. How does soccer relate to math? explain
    Soccer directly relates to math because of statistics. Goals, averages, assists, minutes, timeouts. They are all about math and counting and dividing.
