Senior Project Proposal Sheet

Name: Mamadou Bah

Proposed Topic with Essential Questions: I believe soccer should be more implemented in American society in comparison with foreign contries.

What about this topic appeals to you? Why did you choose it?
Soccer is a sport I've been in love with since I was a child. I've alwats dreamed playing for big clubs but apparently major clubs can only be found in Europe or South America. I chose it to show how much of a competitive sport it is next to Basketball and Football.

What do you already know about this project?
I know Soccer is an international sport that is known and loved world wide. But America is the only nation holding back it's popularity cause they simply find it "boring' to watch in comparison with American Football and Basketball.

What are you hoping to learn about this subject?
I'm hoping to learn why American people aren't that much involved in Soccer as the world is.

What are you most intrested in regarding this subject?
I'm intrested in showing the class during my presentation of how soccer is not just a game of kickball but involves tactics and techniques. But most importatntly I want to show why it isn't such a "boring" sport.

What potential risk or challenge do you forsee for your project?
i'm afraid that most of the class won't take my message i'll be trying to point out seriously. Meaning that the most dominant sport such as Basketball and Football will always prevail over soccer in America.
