  Soccer, known as football in most parts of the world, is one of the most popular and widely played sports across the globe. It is a game that transcends cultures, bringing people together through the love of competition and teamwork. To understand soccer, it is essential to explore its rich history, learn the basics of the game, and familiarize yourself with its rules and positions. 
  The origins of soccer can be traced back to ancient civilizations, where various forms of ball games were played. Modern soccer, as we know it today, began to take shape in England during the 19th century. It quickly gained popularity and spread internationally, becoming the universal sport it is now. The simplicity of the game—a ball and a field—makes it accessible to players of all ages and backgrounds, contributing to its enduring appeal. 
  At its core, soccer is played by two teams, each consisting of eleven players. The objective is to score goals by getting the ball into the opposing team’s net while defending your own. Matches are typically divided into two halves of 45 minutes each, with additional time added for stoppages. The team with the most goals at the end of the match wins. If the score is tied, extra time or penalty shootouts may be used to determine a winner, depending on the competition.

  Racing with Rich Energy - How a...

  Formula One has long maintained a glitzy aura that masks dark and strange goings-on in the background. But with the 2019 season came a force louder than Formula One could dream of muffling: William Storey, the founder of British energy drink startup Rich Energy. 
   
   
   
  Storey became a multimillion-dollar sponsor of the Haas Formula One team a year after records showed Rich Energy having a mere $770 in the bank. He equated his doubters to moon-landing truthers and publicly mocked both the Haas team and the entities winning legal disputes against him. But where were actual cans of Rich Energy, and did the supposed sponsorship funds exist? 
   
   
   
  In the six months between Storey's first race as a Formula One sponsor and his very public exit, he stole the spotlight with a loud mouth and an active Twitter account. Haas team boss Guenther Steiner once described the Rich Energy news cycle as: "I'm getting sick of answering these stupid fucking questions on a race weekend. I've never seen any fucking thing like this." No one else had, either. This book uncovers the complete, bizarre story.

  When a career-ending injury saw former Ireland and Millwall striker Richie Sadlier retire from football at age 24, his life spiralled out of control.
  Without structure or a sense of purpose, and fuelled by a dependency on alcohol, he spent years running from the dark memories and feelings that had haunted him since childhood. Until one day he hit rock bottom and decided to confront his demons.
  Recovering written with Dion Fanning is about a life shaped by efforts to escape, and how it is possible to rebuild that life, piece by piece, with the right help.
  Inspiring and ground-breaking, it is an important reflection on the need to move away from perceptions of shame in our discussions about mental health, sex, relationships and addiction.

  Packrafts are rugged, portable rafts, small enough to attach under a rucksack, but stable on the water to reassure first time paddlers. Weighing from 1-3 kilos, they open up a whole new world of amphibious adventuring, from navigating easily accessible waterways to discovering more challenging rivers and lochs only reachable on foot or bicycle. Packrafting: A Beginners' Guide is a perfect introduction to the game-changing recreational opportunities opened up by packrafting. It takes you through the different types and features of packrafts to ensure that you buy a boat that is right for you and have the right gear to use with it. It clearly explains the basic paddling skills and how to safely evaluate risks on the water. It also introduces the different types of adventures you can undertake with your packraft, from paddling a local canal or river to lashing a bicycle over the bow or using a packable sail to traverse open water. The book is comprehensively illustrated with over 120 colour photographs making it easy to understand and clear to follow.
