Free NitroPhen™! Free CreaBlast™! Free Anabolic Steroids Report! Free KILLER MRP™! Act Now! The idea of a kicking game may well have occurred to many different peoples in all parts of the world. The English did more with the kicking game than anyone else. They played the game of football when ever or where ever possible. By the mid-1600's, football began to take on the look of a national game. It even had rules. Young Englishmen were playing it everywhere. Although the football rules had not yet been written down at Rugby, the school itself had an ironclad rule affecting all games: the game had to stop five o'clock. One day in 1823, a kicking game was in progress when the bell began to ring. At that moment, a young man named William Webb Ellis caught the ball. For whatever his reason, instead of marking the ball for one last free kick, he took off like a frightened cat and, to the horror of all, RAN across the goal! Today his name is immortalized at Rugby School by a plaque dedicated to "William Webb Ellis, who with a fine disregard for the rules of football as played in his time, first took the ball in his arms and ran with it, thus originating the distinctive feature of the Rugby game."

Bookmark This Page Jim Thorpe 1888-1953 Pictorial Parade Inc. "Jim Thorpe was probably the greatest natural athlete the world has seen in modern times." The New York Times Book of Sports Legends(1991) edited by Joseph Vecchione. Jim Thorpe of the Thunder Clan of the Sac and Fox Tribe, was born May 22, 1887, on the Sac and Fox Indian Reservation, Prague, Oklahoma. In writing for the Fort Worth Star-Telegram, Whit Canning reported that Thorpe was the son of Hiram and Charlotte Thorpe, his Indian - name Wa-Tho-Huk - meant "Bright Path." He wrote that Thorpe had been a twin but that his brother Charlie died of pneumonia when Thorpe was 9. He also lost both of his parents when he was a teenager. In the 1912 Olympic Games in Stockholm Jim won both the pentathlon and the decathlon. Reporting for the New York Herald Tribune in 1953, Red Smith wrote that in the pentathlon, Jim had won the broad jump, the 200-meter hurdles, the discus throw, 1,500 meter run and was third in the javelin. In the decathlon he was first in the high hurdles, the shotput, the high jump and the 1,500. He had also been third in the 100 meters, the discus, the pole vault and the broad jump. He also placed fourth in the 400 meters and the javelin. He had come back from Stockholm with a reportedly $50,000 worth of trophies. A month after his return the Amateur Athletic Union filed charges of professionalism against him because he had played summer baseball with the Rocky Mount Club in the Eastern Carolina Leagues. Even though it had been for a small amount of money he had been stripped of his medals and his trophies sent back to Stockholm. His medals were returned posthumously on October 13, 1982.

Historical Background The World Cup is the world's most popular single sporting event. The World Cup originates from the Olympic games of the 20th century. In 1920, at the Antwerp Olympic games, 22 nations from South America, Asia and Africa participated in football matches. In the 1928 the Olympic games held in Amsterdam gathered 17 nations participated in football matches. On May 26, 1920, FIFA(Federation Internationale de Football Association) announced its plans to organize football competitions; this was the birth of the World Cup. During the FIFA General Congress of June 1929, FIFA president Jules Rimet passed a vote to create the World Cup "We will open the World Cup match to all member nations to send their teams to participate". Consequently, the first World Cup match was held in 1930 in Uruguay. Unfortunately, it was held during a transition period between World War I and the world economic crisis of 1929 and not one European country applied to join in the event. Nevertheless, Mr. Jules Rimet persuaded four European countries to participate and a total of 13 countries gathered together to play in the first World Cup. The matches were held between July 13-July 30, 1930 in three football stadiums in Uruguay.

Home About The Hall Hall of Famers Kicks Store ... Links US SOCCER HISTORY TIMELINE The following is a brief chronology of United States soccer history from 1620 to 1999, produced by the late US Soccer historian S. T. N. "Sam" Foulds. American folklore asserts that Pilgrim Fathers, upon settling at Plymouth Rock, found American Indians along the Massachusetts coast playing a form of football. The Indians called it pasuckquakkohwog , which means "they gather to play ball with the foot." Many American colleges played football, but there was no intercollegiate competition. Rules were casual and often changed. The Oneidas of Boston, the first organized football (soccer) club in America, was formed by Gerritt Smith Miller. The Oneidas played under the experimental rules of Association Football and were undefeated from 1862-65. Princeton University and Rutgers University engaged in the first intercollegiate soccer match Nov. 6 in New Brunswick, N.J. Rutgers won the match 6-4. The game was more similar to soccer than American football.

Office of History No. 58 Did You Know? About the Corps Employee who was the First Olympic Gold Medal Winner James Brendan Connolly (1868-1957) was the first winner of an Olympic Gold Medal, a veteran of the charge up San Juan Hill during the Spanish-American War, candidate for Congress in 1911 (Progressive Party), and one of America’s foremost writers of maritime tales, having authored some 25 full-length works and more than 200 contributions to journals and newspapers. He also served with the Savannah District, U. S. Army Corps of Engineers. Born in South Boston, Massachusetts, one of twelve children, Connolly came to Savannah in 1892 at the invitation of his brother Michael, who worked for the Savannah District and arranged a position for James. In the next three years, James served in various positions, including clerk, recorder of tidal and river current fluctuations, pile-driver inspector, and dredge inspector. Connolly liked the District Engineer, Captain Oberlin Carter, who moved Connolly to rivers and harbors work after he became bored with a clerk’s duties.

The first members from overseas joined in the following order: South Africa in 1909/1910, Argentina and Chile in 1912, USA in 1913. This was the start of FIFA's international activities. The long path towards full expansion had been sketched out. More associations to follow Planning the first FIFA World Cup The resonance at the Olympic Games intensified FlFA's wish for its own world championship. Following a remarkable proposal of the Executive Committee, the FIFA Congress in May 1928 decided to stage a world championship organised by FIFA. Now, the organising country had to be chosen. Hungary, Italy, the Netherlands, Spain, Sweden and Hungary submitted their candidatures. Right from the start, Uruguay was the favourite for important reasons: The country of the twofold Olympic winner (in 1924 and 1928) was celebrating its 100th anniversary of independence in 1930 at great expense.

how I started football art playing for success football trivia ... Red and yellow cards A History of Women's Soccer Question - What do the Football Associations of, England, Holland and Germany have in common with China's Qing Dynasty (founded 1644)? Answer - All four governing bodies at some stage banned women's football. Surprising though it may seem in the light of the boom in women's soccer during the last decade of the 20th Century - and with the fourth Women's World Cup finals set for 2003 - the game was cripplingly held back in earlier times through the prejudice of male-dominated organisations. The first known records of the game are frescoes of women playing football at the time of the Donghan Dynasty (AD 25-220). How far women's football had progressed before the Qing Dynasty came to power is not known, but it quite obviously never became the Sport of Qings. Following the draconian ban it was not until the 1920's that football began creeping into China's school curriculum for girls. Fittingly in the context of the game's history, the first Women's World Cup was destined to be held in China in 1991 - and won by America, whose national team had played its first competitive match only six years earlier. The old and new worlds of women's soccer were thus symbolically brought together - though not before further massive hurdles had been cleared during half a century of the game being played almost as an 'underground' sport.
