Soccer Player Kicking a Ball Coloring Page

A smiling child in a soccer uniform leaps into a powerful kick, sending a classic black-and-white soccer ball flying toward a goal net in the background, with trees and clouds visible behind the field.

Soccer (known as football outside North America) is the world's most popular sport, played by an estimated 250 million people in over 200 countries. A standard soccer ball has a traditional pattern of 20 white hexagons and 12 black pentagons stitched together — this iconic design was first introduced at the 1970 FIFA World Cup and was chosen because the contrast showed up well on black-and-white television. A regulation soccer field can be anywhere from 100 to 130 yards long, and a standard match consists of two 45-minute halves. The fastest recorded goal in professional soccer history was scored just 2.1 seconds after kickoff.

Coloring ideas: color the uniform in any team color you like — classic red, blue, green, or yellow. Give the socks stripes to match and the boots a contrasting color. The soccer ball's pentagons are traditionally black on a white ball. Color the goal posts white or silver and the net pale grey.

For fun, let kids design their own team colors before coloring — what color shirt, shorts, and socks would their ideal team wear? They can even invent a team name and logo on a piece of scrap paper alongside this page.
