Civilizations throughout history all played ball games and many of these can be considered forerunners of the modern game. 2. However, there is scientific evidence that suggests that ball games were played even earlier in ancient China with the name of cuju. There is evidence to show that ball games in Egypt were linked to agriculture and religious ceremonies.

Did you know that the Native American Indians played football? 3. It was quite often that players would finish the game with broken bones and other serious injuries. In fact the game was almost a war with up to 500 players on each side!

4. So they would often disguise themselves with lots of paint to avoid being recognized.

The game was normally played on a sports field that was often one mile long with goals at either end. The game could last for hours and was often carried on from one day to the next.

During the Mid-19th century, football was played at the public schools of England with totally different rules. To unite the widely different forms of football, they came up with the rules that were known as the Cambridge Rules. 5. They allow goal kicks, throw-ins as well as forward passes and prevent running while you are holding the ball!
