The document discusses the lack of opportunities for 18-year old soccer players in Colombian universities like Universidad de La Sabana and Universidad de Los Andes to simultaneously continue their education and play soccer, unlike 18-year old athletes at universities in the United States like Florida International University and Eastern Florida State College. The author chose this topic because it is unfair that 18-year olds in Colombia cannot develop both their education and soccer skills. The main objective is to demonstrate the differing opportunities for 18-year old soccer players to pursue both careers simultaneously in Colombian versus American universities.
