The SOCCER Field has underground Locker Rooms. When the Coaches are in the underground Locker Rooms the SOCCER PLAYERS on the SOCCER Field will be shared equally between the Coaches.

The number of Coaches in the underground Locker Room indicates how many Groups will be created.

Example: There are 4 SOCCER PLAYERS on the SOCCER Field and in the underground Locker Room there are 2 Coaches. The 2 Coaches will form 2 Groups and each Coach will have 2 SOCCER PLAYERS each.   4 / 2 =  2  Groups of SOCCER PLAYERS with each Coach having 2 SOCCER PLAYERS in their Group.

Example: There are 9 SOCCER PLAYERS on the SOCCER Field and in the underground Locker Room there are 3 Coaches. The 3 Coaches will form 3 Groups and each Coach will have 3 SOCCER PLAYERS each.  9 / 3 =  3  Groups of SOCCER PLAYERS with each Coach having 3 SOCCER PLAYERS in their Group.

When we do division problems we are always trying to determine how many SOCCER PLAYERS are in each Coaches Group.

When Coaches move TOWARD the Goal they are considered POSITIVE Integers.

When Coaches move AWAY from the Goal they are considered NEGATIVE Integers.
