History of the National Football League
By the late 1910s , the regional circuits had coalesced into more or less leagues of varying degrees of organization . One of the most prominent at the time was the Ohio League , which boasted the services of legendary Native American athlete Jim Thorpe , among other stars . Another was the somewhat lower - caliber , but better - organized , New York Pro Championship ; two of the New York circuit 's best teams , the Rochester Jeffersons and the Buffalo All - Stars , went on a barnstorming tour of Ohio in 1917 . After the Jeffersons played , and lost badly to , Thorpe 's Canton Bulldogs in a 1917 match , Jeffersons owner Leo Lyons ( believing that the foundation of a league could build a sport that rivaled baseball , which then held an effective monopoly on professional sport , in popularity ) suggested to Thorpe that a league be formed .

Women's suffrage in the United Kingdom
Although there is evidence to suggest that they were originally formed to promote female franchise ( the first being in Bristol in 1881 ) , WLAs often did not hold such an agenda . They did , however , operate independently from the male groups . They became more active when they came under the control of the Women 's Liberal Federation , and canvassed all classes for support of women 's suffrage and against domination .

Football
The earliest evidence that games resembling football were being played at English public schools -- mainly attended by boys from the upper , upper - middle and professional classes -- comes from the Vulgaria by William Herman in 1519 . Herman had been headmaster at Eton and Winchester colleges and his Latin textbook includes a translation exercise with the phrase `` We wyll playe with a ball full of wynde '' .
Apartheid
By the 1930s , association football mirrored the balkanised society of South Africa ; football was divided into numerous institutions based on race : the ( White ) South African Football Association , the South African Indian Football Association ( SAIFA ) , the South African African Football Association ( SAAFA ) and its rival the South African Bantu Football Association , and the South African Coloured Football Association ( SACFA ) . Lack of funds to provide proper equipment would be noticeable in regards to black amateur football matches ; this revealed the unequal lives black South Africans were subject to , in contrast to Whites , who were obviously much better off financially . Apartheid 's social engineering made it more difficult to compete across racial lines . Thus , in an effort to centralise finances , the federations merged in 1951 , creating the South African Soccer Federation ( SASF ) , which brought Black , Indian , and Coloured national associations into one body that opposed apartheid . This was generally opposed more and more by the growing apartheid government , and -- with urban segregation being reinforced with ongoing racist policies -- it was harder to play football along these racial lines . In 1956 , the Pretoria regime -- the administrative capital of South Africa -- passed the first apartheid sports policy ; by doing so , it emphasised the White - led government 's opposition to inter-racialism .
History of Tottenham Hotspur F.C.
Tottenham Hotspur F.C. is an English football club based in Tottenham , London that came into existence in 1882 . Formed as Hotspur Football Club by a group of schoolboys , it was renamed Tottenham Hotspur F.C. in 1884 . The club became a professional football club in 1895 , and won the FA Cup in 1901 before they joined the Football League , becoming the only non-League club to achieve the feat since the formation of the Football League . Since then , Tottenham have won the FA Cup a further seven times , the Football League twice , the Football League Cup four times , the UEFA Cup twice and also the UEFA Cup Winners ' Cup . The Cup Winners ' Cup victory in 1963 made Tottenham the first English team to win a UEFA competition . In 1960 -- 61 , they were the first team to complete The Double in the 20th century .
Liverpool F.C.
Liverpool F.C. was founded following a dispute between the Everton committee and John Houlding , club president and owner of the land at Anfield . After eight years at the stadium , Everton relocated to Goodison Park in 1892 and Houlding founded Liverpool F.C. to play at Anfield . Originally named `` Everton F.C. and Athletic Grounds Ltd '' ( Everton Athletic for short ) , the club became Liverpool F.C. in March 1892 and gained official recognition three months later , after The Football Association refused to recognise the club as Everton . The team won the Lancashire League in its début season , and joined the Football League Second Division at the start of the 1893 -- 94 season . After finishing in first place the club was promoted to the First Division , which it won in 1901 and again in 1906 .
Football
The first detailed description of what was almost certainly football in England was given by William FitzStephen in about 1174 -- 1183 . He described the activities of London youths during the annual festival of Shrove Tuesday :

Football
In Britain , by 1870 , there were about 75 clubs playing variations of the Rugby school game . There were also `` rugby '' clubs in Ireland , Australia , Canada and New Zealand . However , there was no generally accepted set of rules for rugby until 1871 , when 21 clubs from London came together to form the Rugby Football Union ( RFU ) . The first official RFU rules were adopted in June 1871 . These rules allowed passing the ball . They also included the try , where touching the ball over the line allowed an attempt at goal , though drop - goals from marks and general play , and penalty conversions were still the main form of contest .
Football
In July 1858 , Tom Wills , an Australian - born cricketer educated at Rugby School in England , wrote a letter to Bell 's Life in Victoria & Sporting Chronicle , calling for a `` foot - ball club '' with a `` code of laws '' to keep cricketers fit during winter . This is considered by historians to be a defining moment in the creation of Australian rules football . Through publicity and personal contacts Wills was able to co-ordinate football matches in Melbourne that experimented with various rules , the first of which was played on July 31 , 1858 . One week later , Wills umpired a schoolboys match between Melbourne Grammar School and Scotch College . Following these matches , organised football in Melbourne rapidly increased in popularity .

Football
Richard Mulcaster , a student at Eton College in the early 16th century and later headmaster at other English schools , has been described as `` the greatest sixteenth Century advocate of football '' . Among his contributions are the earliest evidence of organised team football . Mulcaster 's writings refer to teams ( `` sides '' and `` parties '' ) , positions ( `` standings '' ) , a referee ( `` judge over the parties '' ) and a coach `` ( trayning maister ) '' . Mulcaster 's `` footeball '' had evolved from the disordered and violent forms of traditional football :
Football
At the Freemasons ' Tavern , Great Queen Street , London on the evening of October 26 , 1863 , representatives of several football clubs in the London Metropolitan area met for the inaugural meeting of The Football Association ( FA ) . The aim of the Association was to establish a single unifying code and regulate the playing of the game among its members . Following the first meeting , the public schools were invited to join the association . All of them declined , except Charterhouse and Uppingham . In total , six meetings of the FA were held between October and December 1863 . After the third meeting , a draft set of rules were published . However , at the beginning of the fourth meeting , attention was drawn to the recently published Cambridge Rules of 1863 . The Cambridge rules differed from the draft FA rules in two significant areas ; namely running with ( carrying ) the ball and hacking ( kicking opposing players in the shins ) . The two contentious FA rules were as follows :
Artificial turf
Some association football clubs in Europe installed synthetic surfaces in the 1980s , which were called `` plastic pitches '' ( often derisively ) in countries such as England . There , several professional club venues had adopted them ; QPR 's Loftus Road , Luton Town 's Kenilworth Road , Oldham Athletic 's Boundary Park and Preston 's Deepdale . QPR had been the first team to install an artificial pitch at their stadium in 1981 , but were the first to remove it when they did so in 1988 . The last Football League team to have an artificial pitch in England was Preston North End , who removed their pitch in 1994 after eight years in use .
Football
In England , by the 1890s , a long - standing Rugby Football Union ban on professional players was causing regional tensions within rugby football , as many players in northern England were working class and could not afford to take time off to train , travel , play and recover from injuries . This was not very different from what had occurred ten years earlier in soccer in Northern England but the authorities reacted very differently in the RFU , attempting to alienate the working class support in Northern England . In 1895 , following a dispute about a player being paid broken time payments , which replaced wages lost as a result of playing rugby , representatives of the northern clubs met in Huddersfield to form the Northern Rugby Football Union ( NRFU ) . The new body initially permitted only various types of player wage replacements . However , within two years , NRFU players could be paid , but they were required to have a job outside sport .
Afrikaans
A relative majority of the first settlers whose descendants today are the Afrikaners were from the United Provinces ( now Netherlands and Flanders ) , though up to one - sixth of the community was also of French Huguenot origin , and a seventh from Germany .
England at the FIFA World Cup
Because a few years previously saw English hooligans at European competition matches , England were forced to play their group games on Sardinia and Sicily . In group F , was the European champions Netherlands , the Republic of Ireland and Egypt and England . After opening the tournament with a 1 -- 1 draw against Ireland and a 0 -- 0 draw against the Dutch , England then beat Egypt 1 -- 0 . This was Egypt 's first appearance since the 1934 World Cup . England won the group with four points .
Football
In 1848 , at Cambridge University , Mr. H. de Winton and Mr. J.C. Thring , who were both formerly at Shrewsbury School , called a meeting at Trinity College , Cambridge , with 12 other representatives from Eton , Harrow , Rugby , Winchester and Shrewsbury . An eight - hour meeting produced what amounted to the first set of modern rules , known as the Cambridge rules . No copy of these rules now exists , but a revised version from circa 1856 is held in the library of Shrewsbury School . The rules clearly favour the kicking game . Handling was only allowed when a player catches the ball directly from the foot entitling them to a free kick and there was a primitive offside rule , disallowing players from `` loitering '' around the opponents ' goal . The Cambridge rules were not widely adopted outside English public schools and universities ( but it was arguably the most significant influence on the Football Association committee members responsible for formulating the rules of Association football ) .
2019 AFC Asian Cup
The official logo of the 2019 AFC Asian Cup was unveiled on 23 January 2017 in Abu Dhabi during the drawing ceremony for the third round of the 2019 AFC Asian Cup qualification . The colors used in the logo were derived from the flag of the UAE . The seven hexagons formed by colored ribbons represents the seven emirates of the host country . The interlacing hexagon pattern of the logo was inspired from Islamic art , as well as the old Emirati tradition of using palm leaves , locally known as saf , in weaving . The outer circle along with the geometric design within it symbolizes the sport of football .
History of the Cleveland Browns
The history of the Cleveland Browns American football team began in 1944 when taxi - cab magnate Arthur B. `` Mickey '' McBride secured a Cleveland , Ohio franchise in the newly formed All - America Football Conference ( AAFC ) . Paul Brown , who coach Bill Walsh once called the `` father of modern football '' , was the team 's namesake and first coach . From the beginning of play in 1946 at Cleveland Municipal Stadium , the Browns were a great success . Cleveland won each of the AAFC 's four championship games before the league dissolved in 1949 . The team then moved to the more established National Football League ( NFL ) , where it continued to dominate . Between 1950 and 1955 , Cleveland reached the NFL championship game every year , winning three times .
Eden Hazard
Hazard was born in La Louvière and grew up in Braine - le - Comte . His mother , Carine , and father , Thierry , were both footballers . His father spent most of his career playing at semi-professional level with La Louvière in the Belgian Second Division . He played mainly as a defensive midfielder . His mother played as a striker in the Belgian Women 's First Division and stopped playing when she was three months pregnant with Eden . After playing football , both parents became sports teachers . Thierry retired from his position in 2009 in order to devote more time to his children .
England at the FIFA World Cup

Liverpool F.C.
Anfield was built in 1884 on land adjacent to Stanley Park . It was originally used by Everton before the club moved to Goodison Park after a dispute over rent with Anfield owner John Houlding . Left with an empty ground , Houlding founded Liverpool in 1892 and the club has played at Anfield ever since . The capacity of the stadium at the time was 20,000 , although only 100 spectators attended Liverpool 's first match at Anfield .
Liverpool F.C.
Founded in 1892 , the club joined the Football League the following year and has played at Anfield since its formation . Liverpool established itself as a major force in English and European football in the 1970s and 1980s when Bill Shankly and Bob Paisley led the club to 11 League titles and seven European trophies . Under the management of Rafael Benítez and captained by Steven Gerrard , Liverpool became European champions for the fifth time in 2005 .
Football
During the early 19th century , most working class people in Britain had to work six days a week , often for over twelve hours a day . They had neither the time nor the inclination to engage in sport for recreation and , at the time , many children were part of the labour force . Feast day football played on the streets was in decline . Public school boys , who enjoyed some freedom from work , became the inventors of organised football games with formal codes of rules .
