Left half is my "specialty" position. I've played that since I first played in high school (dropped the game at 13, took back up at 17). Also play on either wing, but prefer left, when I have too much energy (last week I played left half, left wing subbed off, I moved to left wing, and the guy who subbed on played left half - I swear I sprinted the whole game). The other position I play when I get the chance is moved to the right half.

Beyond those two positions, I can and often do play anywhere. I've played left fullback, inner and center forward at various times in my life.

I rate myself as a half who can play as an inside forward. However i can play as a striker as i have a knack for finding the net. However my game is much better suited to defence i.e better at passing, tackling than dribbling.

I've always enjoyed right back, but this year i've changed to the left and i'd hate to go back now. Really improved my reverse sticking as well. Quite surprised at the amount of goalies.

I started off as a winger, but due to me putting on weight and losing the little speed I have, have now been confined to a central midfield role. I'm not as happy there though, need too much spatial awareness . . .

I play center half and I like it because I can see everything in front of me and control the direction of play. I've played just about every position though except for goalie, but without even playing it, it's probably my favorite player on the field. I have a lot of respect for goalkeepers--they're pretty awesome!

I have taken blows to my nose and mouth and they slowed me a little bit. I decided on goalkeeping after decided our team uniform sucked. I love a right back position though..
