Soccer involves 8-10 miles of running per game. Go play a five game tournament weekend while you’re growing. Also, there’s more hip and shoulder contact than people know. 

Concussions.  Almost as many as American football.  Not to mention ACLs.  It's a great game, but I think US youth soccer has some things very wrong.  

The soccer ACL injuries are more prominent with females. It has to do with their hip structure.
