What Is Football

Things Needed
Football Field
I like football because it is entertaining. It has a lot of thrill and excitement. I g0 for Richmond and they are the best team even though we haven't won a grand final in years. But I still love cheering for them.
Why Do I Like Football
When you have the football you need to have the football facing down and a firm grip, and bend your knee and kick away.
