What is Soccer?[edit | edit source]

  • ۱٫ Soccer is a game in which players score a point by getting a ball into the other team’s goal. Each team has 11 players, including a goalkeeper. In many parts of the world, soccer is called football.
  • ۲٫ Games that involved kicking a ball have been played for over 3,000 years. Ancient Chinese, Greek, and Roman soldiers played them to train for war. Religious ceremonies and wedding celebrations often included such a game.
  • ۳٫ Many different types of balls were used. Pacific Islanders kicked coconuts, oranges, or pig bladders. The ancient Incas and Mayans developed a game that used a rubber ball. Other people played with balls made from animal skins stuffed with hair, grass, or rags.
  • ۴٫ The modern game of soccer began in Britain. In the Middle Ages, entire villages would play against each other. Because there were no rules, games were very violent and might go all day long. Authorities tried to ban the game, but the common people loved it and refused to stop playing.
  • ۵٫ To make the game less violent, upper-class English schools created rules for it in the 1800s. In 1863, the London Football Association was formed and set rules for its member clubs to play by. In 1869, it added the rule that players could not touch the ball with their hands. They could use only their feet or their head to move the ball around the playing field to score a goal. This rule still applies today.
  • ۶٫ Up until the late 1800s, the game had been called football, but it is thought that students named it “soccer” as an abbreviated form of Association. Today, depending on the country, the game is called either soccer or football. School clubs were formed to play against each other.
  • ۷٫ Over the years, British sailors and settlers introduced the game to Europe, South and North America, and India. In 1908, soccer became an Olympic sport.
  • ۸٫ Soccer is now the world’s most popular game. It is watched by millions and is played by everyone from professional players to young children.
