    The History of Football from FIFA.com • The Origins • Britain, the home of Football • Opposition to the game • The Global Growth The Origins The contemporary history of the world's favorite 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.

    History of Soccer History of Soccer An Aztec Junior Academy History Project Soccer Facts: The Beginning of the Sport ❖ The very earliest form of the game with scientific evidence was an exercise from a military manual in China dating back to 206 B.C. to 220 A.D. One Hundred Children in the Long Spring 12th century AD, Song Dynasty Soccer Facts: Prelude to Global Popularity ❖ The Han Dynasty ancestor of a football was called Ts’u Chu. It was a leather ball measuring 30-40cm in diameter filled with feathers and hair. ❖ In Japan, a similar form of this game, called kemari, began about 500-600 years after the creation of Ts’u Chu, followed by chuk-guk in Korea and woggabaliri in Australia. ❖ The Greek episkyros and the Roman harpastum was later played with a smaller ball by two teams on a rectangular field marked by boundary lines and a centreline. The objective was to get the ball over the opposition's territory. ❖ As early 1314, soccer grew in popularity in Europe, however authorities issued proclamations forbidding the sport within the city due to the chaos it usually caused. ❖ In 1365, King Edward III of England actually made the game punishable by law because it distracted soldiers from practising more useful military disciplines, particularly archery. The ban lasted almost 500 years. ❖ Although soccer was popular from the 8th to the 19th century, it was disorganised, violent, more spontaneous and was usually played by an indefinite number of players. An early illustration of soccer. Getty Images. ❖ It was nine years after the rules of soccer were first established in 1863 that the size and weight of the soccer ball was finally standardised.

  • Research Design
    Boeije-3883-Ch-02:Hodkinson-3827-Ch-08.qxp 4/23/2009 3:03 PM Page 19 2 RESEARCH DESIGN The flexible research procedure of qualitative research that was touched upon in Chapter 1, might suggest that this type of research requires little or no planning and that researchers can work with whatever they encounter. Nothing is further from the truth. Researchers face the difficult task of finding a balance between their preparations, resulting in a research plan and conducting the research in practice . The research plan contains the research questions, the research purpose, an ethical paragraph, a plan for disseminating the findings and an outline of the overall research strategy as well as the specific methods, techniques and instruments to be used. A plan provides structure, but it should not interfere with flexibility. A plan provides certainty, but should not block other promising options. This chapter provides pointers for handling this ambivalence in the design of a qualitative research project. LEARNING AIMS At the end of this chapter, you will be able to: • Name and reflect on all elements of a research plan • Reflect on the use of literature in a qualitative study • Recognize a research question that is framed in a way that demands qualitative methods • Formulate a qualitative research question when a research topic is given • See how descriptive and explanatory purposes of research are related • Distinguish between the purposes of fundamental and applied research • Account for the choice of qualitative research methods in a study • Work out the composition of a sample when starting with an a priori theory • Employ theoretical selection in a qualitative project • Identify some commonly used strategies for getting access to and recruiting participants Boeije-3883-Ch-02:Hodkinson-3827-Ch-08.qxp 4/23/2009 3:03 PM Page 20 20 ANALYSIS IN QUALITATIVE RESEARCH Planning a research project The planning of a qualitative research project seems to run counter to the open pro cedure described in Chapter 1.

  • The Footscray Football Club and Its Local Community in Colonial Melbourne
    Foundation Narratives in Rowing, Cricket and Australian Rules Football: Sport in Footscray 1859-1886 Darren Arthur A thesis submitted for a Masters by Research degree at Victoria University Institute for Health and Sport Victoria University Melbourne, Victoria April 2019 Darren Edwin Arthur – MA Thesis ii Abstract How does a sporting club come to life? What and who are the drivers behind it and what are the forces that shape its development? This thesis examines the town of Footscray through the lens of three local sporting clubs during the period 1859–1886. The study attempts to answer the above questions and considers the reasons each entity came into prominence and what hindered their progress or allowed them to grow. The major focus of this thesis is the Footscray Football Club whose precise origins have not been formally identified, despite conjecture that the club was founded in 1883. Two other local sporting clubs are closely scrutinised, namely the first incarnations of the Footscray rowing and cricket clubs, whose histories have not been properly documented. The intertwined histories of these organisations will not only assist in providing wider contexts for understanding the birth of the local football club, but will, more broadly, illuminate the important role that sport plays in the building of local communities. Darren Edwin Arthur – MA Thesis iii Declaration I, Darren Edwin Arthur, declare that the Masters by Research thesis entitled, “Foundation Narratives in Australian Rules Football: The Footscray Football Club and its Local Community 1859-1886” is no more than the required word length including quotes and exclusive of appendices, bibliography, references and footnotes.

    Introduction Football, the world’s favourite sport, the Beautiful Game, soccer, fußball, fútbol…. watched by millions, billions in fact, played in every country in the world (probably), the most active agent of wellbeing on the planet (discuss!), started everywhere it is claimed, but was given form somewhere. Who were the shapers of this wonderful sport we’ve known how to play instinctively since we could toe-poke a ball into our parent’s hands? What were their dreams? Where were the rules of play set down that allow Messi, Ronaldo et al to show us their genius with a ball? Where did it all start? In the north of England in the 19th Century life was tough and the need for work drove people to the towns. Industry provided work and drove the economy that sent a flood of pink ink across the globe. Sport created the discipline needed to maintain the arrogance of empire. Victorian organisation provided the need for structures, strictures and codification. Cricketing gentlemen were looking for a winter sport to keep the blood flowing during the cold, damp winters. The components were there in an English industrial city whose special geography and creative spirit were equal to the task of forging the ultimate competitive team game. Just as Florence had taken art to a new level in the Renaissance, Sheeld would shape the game of Association football, the game the world would know as football. Why Sheeld? An industrial town situated amongst hills and valleys carved by fast flowing rivers, harnessed to make the world’s cutlery.

  • AFL Victoria
    Thursday 8th September, 2011 Attention: Mr Stephen Palethorpe Committee Secretary Senate Environment and Communications Reference Committee Sent via email: [email protected] Dear Sir, RE: Inquiry into recent ABC programming decisions As the state body for Australian Rules football in Victoria, the CEO of the Australian Football League (AFL) Mr Andrew Demetriou has passed on your letter dated the 19th of August for our input/response. We would particularly like to address point (e) in the terms of reference which states: “the future potential implications of these cuts on ABC television’s capacity to broadcast State League football and rugby”. AFL Victoria have real concerns that the ABC may elect to cease covering State League level competition matches around Australia and, in particular, no longer broadcast Victorian Football League (VFL) matches. The professional ABC production that the VFL competition has enjoyed for many years is first class and is a direct result of the wonderful team at the ABC led by Kirsty Bradmore. We believe it provides a vital link and service to the numerous football followers that are interested in supporting and watching State League level football via the coverage. The talented player pathway in Victoria, which the VFL competition plays an important role, provides on average 50% of new talent into the AFL competition annually, the most attended and watched sporting competition in Australia. The broadcast of the VFL competition helps promote this new talent before they are drafted into the AFL competition and contributes to the enormous interest that is generated in these players. The VFL competition also provides an opportunity for young AFL listed players as they strive to develop into accomplished AFL players.
