Throughout this essay one should see many differences and similarities in high school and college in the areas of sports, responsibility, and school in general. .
Throughout all four years of high school I played sports, soccer mostly. This is my first year at college in which I am currently playing soccer. There are not too many differences between soccer at the high school level and the college level. One difference would be the length of the season in which you play. In high school the average soccer season lasted about 3 to 4 months. You would start a week before school in August and end in the first week of November. And then you would start you club season which is a totally different thing. In college your season is about the same length, except you don't play club in the spring and summer. In fact you still train and practice and do other leagues, like indoor soccer, with you college team. Then you have one of the most important differences, which is the level of play. In high school, as freshmen, one can still be one of the top players in the state. Where as in college soccer it can take at least a couple of years to even earn a starting position. The speed of the game just grows to a faster and a more complex type of game.
