CONCLUSIONHISTORY
The contemporary history of the world's favourite game spans
more than 100 years. It all began in 1863 in England, when
rugby football and association football branched off on their
different courses and the Football Association in England was
formed - becoming the sport's first governing body. Both codes
stemmed from a common root and both have a long and
intricately branched ancestral tree. A search down the centuries
reveals at least half a dozen different games, varying to different
degrees, and to which the historical development of football has
been traced back. Whether this can be justified in some
instances is disputable. Nevertheless, the fact remains that
people have enjoyed kicking a ball about for thousands of years.
and there is absolutely no reason to consider it an aberration of
the more ‘natural’ form of playing a ball with the hands. On the
contrary, apart from the need to employ the legs and feet in
tough tussles for the ball, often without any laws for protection,
it was recognized right at the outset that the art of controlling the
ball with the feet was not easy and, as such, required no small
measure of skill. The very earliest form of the game for which
there is scientific evidence was an exercise from a military
manual dating back to the second and third centuries BC in
China.This Han Dynasty forebear of football was called Tsu’ Chu and it
consisted of kicking a leather ball filled with feathers and hair
through an opening, measuring only 30-40cm in width, into a
small net fixed onto long bamboo canes. According to one
variation of this exercise, the player was not permitted to aim
at his target unimpeded, but had to use his feet, chest, back
and shoulders while trying to withstand the attacks of his
opponents. Use of the hands was not permitted. Another form
of the game, also originating from the Far East, was the
Japanese Kemari, which began some 500-600 years later and is
still played today. This is a sport lacking the competitive
element of Tsu' Chu with no struggle for possession involved.
Standing ina circle, the players had to pass the ball to each
other, in a relatively small space, trying not to let it touch the
ground. The Greek 'Episkyros' - of which few concrete details
survive - was much livelier, as was the Roman 'Harpastum'. The
latter was played out with a smaller ball by two teams on a
rectangular field marked by boundary lines and a centre line.
The objective was to get the ball over the opposition's
boundary lines and as players passed it between themselves,
trickery was the order of the day. The game remained popular
for 700-800 years, but, although the Romans took it to Britain
with them, the use of feet was so small as to scarcely be of
consequence.RULES & REGULATIONS
Ball in and out of Play: The soccer ball is out of bounds when it has
crossed the goal line or touchline whether on the ground or in air. If it
rebounds off the referee, an assistant referee, a goal post, crossbar, or
corner flag post and remains inside the field, then it is still in play.
Method of scoring: A goal is scored in football if the ball crosses the
goal line between the two goalposts and under the crossbar, as long as
no violation of the rules has taken place. The side that scores the most
goals wins. If both teams have the same number of goals at the end of
the match, it is considered a draw even if neither of them scored a
goal.
Offside: A player is in offside position if there are fewer than two
defenders (including the goalie) between him and the goal line. A
violation of the offside rule in football occurs if he is in that position
and the ball is played to him. A free kick is awarded to the opposition
if a player is caught offside.
Fouls and misconducts: The following are the most common fouls in
football: kicking, tripping, pushing, or charging another player
recklessly: striking or attempting to strike an opponent or any member
of the opposing side. A foul is called if a player: makes a tackle but
hits the player before the ball; deliberately handles the ball (except the
goalkeeper in his proper area); or if he uses excessive force in
defending an opponent.Free kicks: A restarts a play after a foul or rule infringement is
committed and is usually taken from the spot where the violation was
committed. A free-kick can either be “direct”, in which a kicker may
score directly, or “indirect”, in which another player must touch the
ball before a goal can be scored.
Penalty kick: A penalty kick in football is awarded if a defender
commits a foul inside its own penalty area. The kick is taken from the
penalty spot and all the players (except the kicker and the goalkeeper)
must be outside the penalty area and penalty arc.
Throw-in: A throw-in in football is awarded to a team if the ball goes
over the touchline. It is awarded to the team opposing the side that
touched the ball last. The throw is taken from the spot where the ball
goes out of bounds. The taker must throw the ball with both hands,
both feet on the ground, and facing the field of play.
Goal kick: A goal-kick in football is awarded to the defending team if
the opposing team causes the ball to go over the goal-line. Any player
from the defending side is allowed to take the goal kick. It must 9 be
taken anywhere on the goal area and must go beyond the penalty area
or it will be retaken. The ball must be touched by another player
before the taker can play it again.
Corner kick: A corner kick in football is awarded to the attacking
team if an opposing player is the last to touch the ball before it goes
out of bounds on the goal-line. The attacking team resumes play by
placing the ball in the corner are nearest to where it crossed the goal
line.LATEST CHANGES IN THE RULES
1. Removing the off-side rule
Van Basten said: “Football is more and more like handball. Personally
I’m curious about how football would work without off-side.”
He cited hockey which works without it, and believed teams could
adapt with time. He added: “The game would be more attractive.
“The attackers would have more chances and there would be more
goals, That’s what fans want to see.”
2. Introducing a basketball-style foul system
Van Basten said: “Like in basketball, a player can only make five
fouls and then has to leave the field”.
Players in that sport, once they have made their sixth offence in a
match, are “fouled out” and cannot return to the court at all.
3. Punish deliberate handballs less harshly
Van Basten believes straight red cards are too harsh, and he would
rather see yellow cards handed out, or the possibility of a “Sin bin”
type sanction, as seen in rugby, of 5-10 minutes.
Although those who remember Luis Suarez’s blatant handball on the
line in the last minute for Uruguay against Ghana in the 2010 World
Cup will maybe see this as too lenient.
4. Making the last 10 minutes flow better
Van Basten said: “We are very aware of the problem of time. The
viewers want to see action and goals
“The longer a substitution, the execution of a free kick or the
treatment of an injured player, the more playing time is lost. We must
be careful about this.
“We therefore also discuss making the last ten minutes of the game a
period of effective playing time. The ball must roll every ten minutes.

INJURIES
Traumatic Injuries: Knee injuries in football are the most common,
especially those to the anterior or posterior cruciate ligament
(ACL/PCL) and to the menisci (cartilage of the knee). These knee
injuries can adversely affect a player's longterm involvement in the
sport. Football players also have a higher chance of ankle sprains due
to the surfaces played on and cutting motions. Shoulder injuries are
also quite common and the labrum (cartilage bumper surrounding the
socket part of the shoulder) is particularly susceptible to injury,
especially in offensive and defensive linemen. In addition, injuries to
the acromioclavicular joint (ACJ) or shoulder are seen in football
players
Concussions: Football players are very susceptible to concussions. A
concussion is a change in mental state due to a traumatic impact. Not
all those who suffer a concussion will lose consciousness. Some signs
that a concussion has been sustained are headache, dizziness, nausea,
loss of balance, drowsiness, numbness/tingling, difficulty
concentrating, and blurry vision. The athlete should return to play
only when clearance is granted by a health care professional.
Overuse Injuries: Low-back pain, or back pain in general, is a fairly
common complaint in football players due to overuse. Overuse can
also lead to overtraining syndrome, when a player trains beyond the
ability for the body to recover. Patellar tendinitis (knee pain) is acommon problem that football players develop and can usually be
treated by a quadriceps strengthening program.
Heat Injuries: Heat injuries are a major concern for youth football
players, especially at the start of training camp. This usually occurs in
August when some of the highest temperatures and humidity of the
year occur. Intense physical activity can result in excessive sweating
that depletes the body of salt and water. The earliest symptoms are
painful cramping of major muscle groups. However, if not treated
with body cooling and fluid replacement, this can progress to heat
exhaustion and heat stroke — which can even result in death. It is
important for football players to be aware of the need for fluid
replacement and to inform medical staff of symptoms of heat injury.

The football affects us all in profound ways. Whether it is by helping
to develop new reflexes or muscle memory while we play with it, by
changing our perceptions of controllable space while we play without
it, or by simply alleviating stress as a past-time. Football can be seen
as a hobby, a sport, an obsession. But we know football to be more
than this. It is, because of its unique nature as an activity of the feet,
an act of rebellion, of liberation, and of declarative identification.
Although it is difficult to see in the United States, football is the true
esperanta - a language that the entire world speaks. And through this
language, if we listen carefully, we can hear a dialogue - a dialogue of
national identity, egalitarian ideas, and of personal liberation. Football
is the ultimate example of symmetry - it could not exist without the
culture that it is situated in, and the culture within which it is played
could not exist without football. In many ways, the history of football
is the history of the modern world. No written history of the world is
complete without a history of the football. So please, pick up a ball
and pass it someone else, for if you do, you are already engaging in
the world's most popular phenomenon. By engaging, we can begin to
understand it, and in understanding it, we are one step closer to
understanding the world we live in.THANK YOU
