Country Profiles

SPAIN || GERMANY || NETHERLANDS || ITALY || UNITED KINGDOM || FRANCE

Italy has started their profiles - go and read about their wonderful players by clicking ITALY above!

In the country profile, you read about a country and how good they are at soccer. It needs to sound very positive and as though you are going to win.

Then there is a list of the players in the girls team, and the boys team, with a short bit about each player, and how famous they are. (It should have everyone in your class).

Here is an example below to give you the idea. The people are made up, but it shows you how you could write about your country and your team.

 

Country Profile: Belgium

In the country of Belgium, everyone is very keen on playing soccer. We believe that the most important thing is to support the team, so even if we lose, we cheer our players. We are proud of being good sports also, and we cheer the other team too.

Our teams train very hard, and do a long run at fitness training every day. Our coach is world famous at soccer, so we think we will do very well in the Euro2000 competition.

The Players (Girls Team)

There are ? top players in our girls team. Here is a little bit about each person in the team.

Janet Simplistic: She is a very fast runner, and just watch out when she starts dribbling with that ball - she can flick it round past you before you realize what is going on!

Mary Miller: Mary has a powerful kick, and can kick a ball clear into the goal from halfway down the field.

Hatty Dawson: She's lean, mean, and hungry for that ball! She especially likes playing on muddy days, when she can slide down the field.

The Players (Boys Team)

There are ? top players in our boys team. Here is a little bit about each person in the team.

Joe Brown: Joe works his hardest to stop the other team scoring. He is the goal keeper, and can stop a ball with his head, his feet, and even his nose! (It tends to bleed a lot when he uses his nose.)

Fred Jackson: A terrifying sight as he roars down the field towards the goal, flicking the ball from one foot to the other while the spectators cheer wildly.
