Outdoor soccer
Gear
Cleats. Cleats are used for better grip on the ground when you are running.
Goalie gloves are used for the goal keeper to save shots from players.
The shin pads are used to protect your shins from other peoples kicks or the soccerball.
Weather
Good weather for soccer is around 15-24 degrees C. This is because it allows you to not overheat and its also warm enough to keep you mucles flexible.
Fuel
Normaly, before playing soccer its important to eat something light and nutritious. An example of this can be fruits or veggies.
Outdoor Ice Hockey
Fuel
Gatorade
Eating REAL food before playing (breakfast, lunch or dinner)
Weather
For perfect ice conditions, 0 to -7 degrees C. If its to hot the ice will melt and if its to cold the ice will have a hard and rough surface.
Having good weather conditions (clear skies, no snow or rain) can allow you to have a more enjoyable experience skating. if there is to much snow then it would be hard to skate; this also goes for humidity. If its to humid the ice will start to become soft and it will be hard to skate making it less enjoyable.

The ideal weather for this is 15-24 degrees C. This is because the temprature keeps you cool and stops your body from overheating.
The humidity range for this activity is also around 40-60% because if its more. you become heavy, wet and sticky. If its to low, then you will get dehydrated fast making you take more water breaks in between.
