New to soccer help!!!?

Ok, I'm a huge soccer fan, ive been playing since I was about 6, and I'm currently a freshmen on my HS varsity team. To be honest my coach is a ****, but if u have a good high school coach whose kid is not involved in the school in no way whatsoever AND is not the coach of any club teams in your area your coach should be fine, unless he's just a ****. If i were you I would get a soccer ball and just juggle in your back yard, by doing this you will improve ball control and it will really come in handy. From your description of yourself you should either play a striker (forward) or a sweeper (last defender before the goalie, this is my position, it can be very hard at times, you must be loud though). I would look up some club teams around your area and contact coaches for a tryout, by the time you tryout for your HS you definitely want to be on a club/travel team, i don't know about California but I'm from MD and we have a thing called an Academy, very good teams, however you travel VERY far, but coaches really like to see you on another team, any team is better than none. Yes, it will be difficult at first, just go to some local camps and see how you do.
