    HISTORY AND RULES

    SOCCER'S BEGINNINGS...
    The origin of soccer can be found in every corner of geography and
    history.
    The Chinese, Japanese, Italian, Ancient Greek, Persian, Viking, and
    many more played a ball game long before our era.
    The Chinese played "football" games date as far back as 3000 years
    ago.
    The Ancient Greeks and the Roman used football games to sharpen
    warriors for battle. In South and Central America a game called
    "Tlatchi" once flourished.

    ANCIENT CIVILIZATIONS
    AND SOCCER...
    Mesoamerican civilizations also devised a game played with
    rubber balls, which resembled a combination between soccer,
    basketball and volleyball.
    The game involved two teams, playing in a sort of basin dug
    below ground level, with baskets strapped in several locations
    on the side walls.
    The teams would then have to kick the ball towards these
    baskets, and score a goal.
    SOCCER IN EUROPE...
    As we go forward on the history of soccer timeline, we notice
    that the game has gradually entered European territory,
    Europe being the place where modern day soccer will start in
    several centuries.
    Middle age soccer is covered in a combination of myth and
    historical facts.
    One popular form of the game (Mob soccer) involved entire
    villages or towns and was rather chaotic.
    SOCCER IN EUROPE...(cont.)
    The teams could have unlimited players, as long as they were
    from the same village or town. Both teams had to kick the ball
    towards specific landmarks, and defend their own.
    To add more chaos, the ball was made out of inflated pigs'
    bladders, or leather skins stuffed with all sorts of materials.
    Picture two masses of people running towards a poor pig
    bladder ball, kicking, stomping, punching and pushing each
    other in the attempt to kick the object to some area.
    SOCCER IN EUROPE...(cont.)
    In medieval France, a game called "La Choule" was usually
    played in town gatherings, such as just after Sunday church, or
    on special occasions or holidays.
    The game itself looked like a combination of soccer, handball,
    hockey, baseball and kickboxing, since the players of each team
    had to strike the ball into the opponent's goal, using whatever
    means necessary and whatever accessories necessary.
    For example, one record shows that players were allowed to use
    sticks or clubs to hit the ball around, although it wasn't always
    the ball that got hit.

    HISTORY AND CONTINUED..


    The game was violent in nature and I
    assume there were plenty occasions
    where the after-church Choule match
    ended up with another trip to the
    church to confess some violent sins.
    In England, the game was surrounded
    by an aura of violence and was
    considered a dangerous and sinful
    game. As such, it was banned in 1314
    by Nicholas de Farndone, the Mayor
    of London.

    SOCCER GROWS POPULAR


    Despite this ban, soccer became
    to grow in medieval England and
    it was not long that it was
    introduced in English public
    schools in order to keep young
    boys fit.
    Since soccer was growing strong
    in English public schools, the idea
    of having an organized
    tournament sparked in the 19th
    century.

    SOCCER GROWS POPULAR

    In 1862, a solicitor by the name of Cobb Morley, formed a semi-


    professional soccer club in Barnes, called the Barnes Club.
    Cobb Morley is rightfully considered the father of soccer, but that's not
    just because he was the one to spark the idea of the Soccer Association.
    He also drew up the Laws of the Game, probably the most important
    document in the history of soccer, since it held all the official rules
    around which the game would be played.

    SOCCER BECOMES OFFICIAL...


    Cobb Morley's rules were accepted by the Soccer Association on the 8th
    of December, 1863 and have since stood as the game's constitution,
    although they were slightly modified throughout time to meet the needs
    of modern soccer.
    It only took around 3 decades after the first official rules of soccer were
    laid down by Cobb Morley and the English Football Association and the
    game was already wide spread throughout Europe, Australia and the
    Americas.
