         <description><![CDATA[Sports in guatemala.

In Guatemala most favorite sports are soccer and basketball
Boys play soccer  and girls play basketball
 People in Guatemala think soccer are for boys
 and basketball for girls
 But girls also play soccer
 I have never seen boys playing basketball 
Before I came here to the United States. 

If people see boys playing basketball 
They bully boys
So I thought it was like that too 
but when I came to the United States
 I saw boys playing basketball
 I don’t know where people from Guatemala
 take that from 
Basketball is for girls. 


One day I told   my family that
 and they couldn't believe it
 But now they know that
I know people can play whatever they want
 It is good to know the history of guatemala.

I like the way the soccer ball moves places to places and I want to follow in his footsteps. I Played soccer for Seacoast United. We travel to different places for games. I used to play basketball but I went and looked for a sport that fit me more. When I first started playing soccer I thought it would be easy but it's harder than You think. You have to control the ball with your feet and score the ball in the goal.</div><div><br><br></div>]]></description>
