Soccer

Soccer (also referred to as football) is a sport that is played by both humans and Smurfs alike. It is usually played by two teams trying to kick a ball into the other team's goal while preventing the other team from doing the same.

In the comic books, it is believed that the sport of soccer was created in the story "Smurf Versus Smurf" when Grouchy refused to participate in playing smurfball and ended up kicking the ball, which inspired the Smurfs to change the game into one of kicking the ball across the field into the other team's goal. From that point on, the sport would be played by the North Smurfs and the South Smurfs as the two teams.

In the EMPATH: The Luckiest Smurf story series, the two teams that would play soccer are the East Smurfs and the West Smurfs.
