The history of football is…
The first iteration of football was in China, and it was called cuju. It existed from approx 1235-1305. The ball had to be passed to teammates without touching the floor and finally had to be kicked through a circular hole in the middle of the pitch. Like volleyball, the teams did not interact with each other during this game.
Fast forward to the 19th and 20th century the game was played in more of a rugby form until a lot of schools in Britain (and, in the USA, president Theodore Roosevelt) changed the game to more of how it’s played today. In 1904, the International Federation of Association Football, or the Federation Internationale de Football Association. In 1930 the first world cup was held.
