Is it too late to start playing soccer?

So I just went to high school this September. I m 14 years old in the 9th grade. I want to join the soccer team this spring but I m having second thoughts. You see, there s people who have been playing since they were little. I never really played that much until like 8th grade, and I never joined a team. I just played with friends once in a while. From my experience, I can t really tell you if I m a decent player. But I want to get better. I just don t know if it s worth it. I wouldn t say that making it to the pros is a big dream or anything. I m not expecting too. I just want to get good at the sport. I m not a very athletic person, and I m looking to change that. I m extremely skinny. My running speed isn t HORRIBLE, but it s not where I want it to be. Should I go through with it? I want to know now so I can start practicing before tryouts this spring. Please give me an honest answer. I m not looking for "Oh you can do anything as long as you believe in yourself" Thank you.
