Football is the world’s most popular ball game. It was estimated that at the turn of the 21st century there were approximately 250 million football players and 1.3 billion people ‘interested’ in football. Football, as we know it, is believed to have originated in the 19th Century, and the first official rules were published by the newly formed FA in 1863.
