I'm just a minor right now, but our teacher said we should start our draft high level now. I can not think of a good topic for my senior project. They say it is easier to do the project when you are interested in it. and my interests are video games, playing basketball / football and I play guitar. I was thinking of learning to make flash games or movies or a theme related to health because I want to be a doctor someday. Ummm, other ideas? please help!
You could research why certain types of music are used for certain games. You can also investigate the effect of music on the mind. Best of luck
South Africa National Football Team in world cup 2010
South Africa was one of four African nations to attend FIFA's 1953 congress, at which the four demanded, and won, representation on the FIFA executive committee. Thus the four nations (South Africa, Ethiopia, Egypt and Sudan) founded the Confederation of African Football in 1956,[2] and the South African representative, Fred Fell, sat at the first meeting as a founding member. It soon became clear however that South Africa's constitution prohibited racially mixed teams from competitive sport and so they could only send either an all-black side or an all-white side to the planned 1957 African Cup of Nations. This was unacceptable to the other members of the Confederation and South Africa were disqualified from the competition, however some sources say that they withdrew voluntarily.
At the second CAF conference in 1958 South Africa were formally expelled from CAF. The all-white (FASA) were admitted to FIFA in the same year, but in August 1960 it was given an ultimatum of one year to fall in line with the non-discriminatory regulations of FIFA. On 26 September 1961 at the annual FIFA conference, the South African association was formally suspended from FIFA. Sir Stanley Rous, president of The Football Association of England and a champion of South Africa's FIFA membership, was elected FIFA President a few days later. Rous was adamant that sport, and FIFA in particular, should not embroil itself in political matters and against fierce opposition he continued to resist attempts to expel South Africa from FIFA. The suspension was lifted in January 1963 after a visit to South Africa by Rous in order to investigate the state of football in the country.
Rous declared that if the suspension were not lifted, football there would be discontinued, possibly to the point of no recovery. The next annual conference of FIFA in October 1964 took place in Tokyo and was attended by a larger contingent of representatives from African and Asian associations and here the suspension of South Africa's membership was re-imposed. In 1976, after the Soweto uprising, they were formally expelled from FIFA.
Association Football in South Africa (commonly referred to as soccer), is the country's most popular participation sport, and is especially popular among the Black population. The governing body is the South African Football Association. The county's top league is the PSL, while the main cup competitions are the MTN 8, the Telkom Knockout, the Telkom Charity Cup and the Nedbank Cup.
South Africa was suspended by FIFA from 1961 to 1992 due to the government's apartheid policies, banning the country from international competition (including the World Cup), and severely stunting the growth of the domestic game. Since the integration of the country, it has developed the most sophisticated professional football structure in Africa, and has been selected as the host nation for the 2010 FIFA World Cup.

In 1976, after the Soweto uprising, they were formally expelled from FIFA.
In 1991, with the apartheid system beginning to be demolished, a new multiracial South African Football Association was formed, and admitted to FIFA. On 7 July 1992, the South African national team played their first game in two decades, beating Cameroon 1-0. South Africa made the 1998 and 2002 World Cups, but failed to get out of the first round each time. They hosted (and won) the 1996 African Nations Cup and will host the 2010 World Cup, the first African nation to do so.
The announcement was made at a glittering ceremony on Thursday night (19 November 2009) at the Sandton Convention Centre. Among others in attendance were the Minister of Justice Jeff Radebe as well as the 2002 Brazil World Cup squad winning captain Cafu.
The Awards are meant for recognising and acknowledging talent of athletes and administrators in football.
To scoop his award, Pienaar was voted ahead of two other players in the Senior Men's National Team – Siboniso Gaxa of Mamelodi Sundowns and Macbeth Sibaya who plays for Rubin Kazan in Russia.
The winner in this category was determined by football supporters via sms through the SABC Television and Radio stations.
In the juniors section, Thulani Serero who plays for Ajax Cape Town and the National Under 20 side, Amajita, was named the Under 20 Player of the Year. He was competing with Philani Khwela of Feyenoord and Daylon Claasen of Ajax Amsterdam in Holland for the Award.
Banyana Banyana's Nompulelo Nyandeni walked away with the Senior Women's National Team Player of the Year. This is a great achievement for the midfielder considering the fact that she was vying for top honours against reigning Women's African Player of the Year, Noko Matlou as well as Kylie-Ann Louw.
Coach of the Year Award went to Gavin Hunt – mentor of the ABSA Premiership Champions Supersport United. In this category, Hunt was pitted against coaching giants – Styles Phumo, Jomo Sono and Serame Letsoaka.
President of SAFA Kirsten Nematandani says, “The inception of the SAFA Awards last year have gone a long way in encouraging players to play with passion and pride, our coaches to work harder at their game plans, match officials to officiate at the highest level, and our administrators to govern the game effectively and efficiently.”
South Africa hosted the 2009 FIFA Confederations Cup, a year before their World Cup, and finished in fourth place, coming through the group stages with a win over New Zealand and a draw with Iraq, despite a loss to Spain. They then lost in the semi-finals to Brazil, conceding a late free-kick after holding the South Americans at bay for most of the match. In the 3rd-place play-off, they lost to Spain after extra time, despite leading 1-0 at one stage. For many commentators, the ability of Bafana Bafana to stand up to the South American and European champions showed just how far the team had come.
As South Africa is going to host FIFA world cup 2010, the matches are schedule in South Africa for which Five of South Africa's football stadiums will undergo renovations for 2010; Soccer City and Ellis Park in Johannesburg, Loftus Versfeld in Pretoria, the Royal Bafokeng stadium and the Free State Stadium in Bloemfontein.

Kings Park and Green Point stadium in Cape Town will become completely new multi-sport facilities, Green Point complete with a retractable dome to protect fans and players from the Cape's unpredictable winter weather. South Africa have got millions of fans all over the world and people love to watch their matches live into the play ground. Their fans enjoy and experience the thrill during their match live in the ground. Now you can get South Africa World cup tickets and World Cup tickets onilne.

Ok, so I'll be a freshman this year. I' going to try out for soccer. I've been playing this sport for 10 years (i'm 14), I've played everywhere (expect for goalie) but mainly I'm best at defense/sweeper, and a HUGE plus I've with/against the Japanese for about 2 years. I'm a great sprinter and I'm ok when it comes to long distance. I'm actually taking cross-country in high school too.
So I was wondering if I could make girl's varsity?
What could I do to make it there? Such as drills and exercises?
it all comes down to how good you are.
if you've been playing for 10 years now im guessing you're good and have had experience playing on some good teams.
if you're not that great and at this point you dont believe in yourself enough in thinking you're going to make it, then theres probably not much you can do other than keeping your endurance level high. one of the first things they look at when you try out is for people who can manage to play a full game without getting tired.
