So here’s to this blog which unfolds the journey of football-from the history behind how it evolved to become a world phenomenon. TIDA Sports, in their way, help the young football players actualise their dream game.
Origins of Football
The sport of football goes back more than 2,000 years. Ancient cultures including the Chinese, Greeks, Romans, and Mesoamericans had an early prototype for the sport. The most close predecessor of today’s game, however is Chinese game Cuju, which has been traced as far back as the Han Dynasty (206 BC–220 AD). Cuju was kicking a leather ball through a hole or net with feet, no hands.
Football became a very disorganized and violent street game in Europe during the medieval period. The games were played between villages, and matches could take hours to complete. The early games had very few rules and were more about physical strength than skill.
The Emergence of Modern Football
Football was transformed into an organized game in the 19th century. England played a major role in modernizing football. Schools and universities began to create rules to discipline the game. In 1863, The Football Association (FA) was established in England. This was the first standardized rule book for football. These rules eliminated rough play and separated football from rugby.
Football quickly spread across Europe and South America. Professional football clubs sprouted in the late 19th century, and international matches started to take place. FIFA, or the Fédération Internationale de Football Association, came into being in 1904 as the sport’s governing body throughout the world.
Growth of Football to Global Sport
Football became hot when the FIFA World Cup was launched in 1930. Ever since then, the event is held every four years, uniting nations under competition and sportsmanship. Football clubs in England, Spain, Germany, and Italy attained huge followings, thus transforming leagues such as the Premier League, La Liga, Bundesliga, and Serie A into global brands.
With the invention of television and digital media, football spread across every corner of the world. The sport has gained billions of fans, with record viewership being witnessed in the UEFA Champions League and domestic leagues.
