At the top of the English football league system, it is the country's primary football competition. Contested by 20 clubs, it operates on a system of promotion and relegation with The Football League. The Premier League is a corporation in which the 20 member clubs act as shareholders. Seasons run from August to May, with teams playing 38 matches each, totalling 380 matches in the season. Most games are played on Saturdays and Sundays, with a few games played during weekday evenings. It was known as the Premiership from 1993 to 2007. It is currently sponsored by Barclays Bank and therefore officially known as the Barclays Premier League. The competition formed as the FA Premier League on 20 February 1992 following the decision of clubs in the Football League First Division to break away from The Football League, which was originally founded in 1888, and take advantage of a lucrative television rights deal.

  • A Brief History of the Laws of the Game
    A Brief History of the Laws of the Game The Laws of the Game are incredibly brilliant. They must be because they provide us with a fun sport which millions of people enjoy. They are also incredibly dull, in their presentation, enough to switch off anyone searching for quick comprehension. Dull? Yes, but only if they are read as written. A brief glance at the rulebook shows just seventeen rules to govern the play but which, amazingly, do not include a single reference to the "Game of Football"! Stanley Lover is an Englishman living in Paris who specializes in the Laws of the Game and has written several books on the Laws and refereeing. What we have is a skeleton, the bare bones of an exciting sport full of action, color, and passion, touching on the whole range of human emotions. Not easy to wrap these ingredients into an exciting document expounding formal procedures, duties, infringements, and sanctions. Another barrier to instant assimilation is the need for multi-language translation for worldwide application. Scratch below the surface And yet, there is a great mine of golden wisdom and commonsense in those dry and dusty old words and phrases. Scratch below the surface and all is revealed! But how? We will deal with that in a moment. For now, we ask a group of young players what they want from the rules. This is a summary of their views; "We want the chance to play well, without getting hurt, and we want to enjoy ourselves." That is exactly what the formal rules do and why they are so incredibly brilliant! Brilliant? Yes, because they are not just ordinary words, arranged in a certain order, but words encasing the basic ethics of fair play laid down by footballers over 130 years ago, 1863.
