Document 3: Ball (association football): A football, soccer ball, or association football ball is the ball used in the sport of association football. The name of the ball varies according to whether the sport is called "football", "soccer", or "association football".

Document 6: Sports associations (East Germany): The term Sports Associations (German: "Sportvereinigung" , ] ) in East Germany (German Democratic Republic, GDR) meant a sports agency for certain economic branches of the whole society, which were members of the East German Sports Association (DTSB). Members of biggest social employers had their own branch sports clubs or the "Sportvereinigung". One of the biggest problems is that you can not find almanacs of these today. All of them were recycled or sold to private persons. So you can not start an article about each trade sports association, since 2012. The rest are data banks of history sections from the sport club sites with the certain name or in addition: pennants, medals, flags, and other related objects. Nevertheless, you can find still a lot of sports societies in the former GDR which use the old names. After 1954 they separated amateur sport from professional sport, and from 1961, most Trade Sports-Associations of sports societies in the GDR had been closed but existed under single clubs with the name BSG ("Betriebssportgemeinschaft") which meant Cooperative Sports Collective in English. In 1966, the football sections were separated and they used the name Fußballclub (FC). They had to conform to the rules of the East German Sports Association. The sections of the associations were called Sports Clubs (SCs) for only the professional athletes.
