As with all athletic endeavors, an understanding of the roles played by human anatomy and physiology are critical to success in soccer. Anatomy is the identification of the structures, forms, and physical components of the body. Physiology is the understanding of the functions, processes, and interactions of the anatomy that allow the body to live and to react to its environment. The anatomy and physiology of the human body are entire areas of subject matter unto themselves. As coaches progress from the lowest levels of youth soccer to the highest levels of advanced (or even elite), soccer, they must immerse themselves in this subject matter in order to understand how human anatomy and physiology apply to the sport and to the age group involved.

Effects of air pressure
When a soccer ball is inflated with less than 8.5 psi, it is more difficult to kick and send down the field and is considered too flat. Too much air pressure and the ball is harder to control -- it bounces a bit more and is harder. This is particularly evident when you receive a pass from a teammate, as the ball typically bounces off the foot further than with a properly inflated ball.
