  • The Development of Football Rules

    The rules of association football (soccer) were developed under a long time. This was
    a game that early on lacked standard rules, instead many variants of rules were in
    use depending on where it was played. Today the game has reached a uniformity
    concerning laws of the game, but I took some time until that happened. The
    beginning of the process took part in Cambridge 1848 when a meeting was held, but
    not until a second meeting 15 years later in London could a satisfying set of rules be
    agreed on. The rules were, however, far from the current ones.

    The Early Days


    In the early days it was not possible to distinguish the two teams by the shirts and it would
    take even longer until numbers were used on the players shirts. Also, the sizes of the
    playing field could vary a lot and the same thing with numbers of players involved.

    When the early game arose in England during the first half of the 19th century, the rules
    shifted depending on which school the game was played.

    The 1800s
    The first attempt to bring together a collection of rules to be used everywhere the game
    was played was made at a meeting in Cambridge in 1848. Representatives from different
    British schools attended and the meeting would result in the “Cambridge Rules”, which was
    the first attempt to unify the rules of the game.

    However, a debate would last about the shape of the game. It took several more meetings
    until it was decided once for all that football was a game that exclusively should be played
    with the feet (dribbling-kicking game) and not by the hands (catch-and-run game) – this
    would result in the dividing of football and rugby. Until 1863, carrying the ball with the
    hands was still practiced in several schools.

    Apart from the separation between association football and rugby, the decisions some took
    to not follow the new code would lead in other directions, such as the special forms of
    football practiced by Americans and Australians.

    Dhaka cloth, beautifully patterned and coloured, is woven on a small loom that has a width smaller than those used for other woven textiles. Dhaka cloth - both the traditional black, white, red and orange and the new modern Dhaka textiles which use a wide range of colours and yarns - has become the best known of Nepalese textiles. Each of these pieces of weaving is a creation integrating new ideas with the old.

    TRADITIONS The cloth is mainly used in making men's caps (topi), the traditional blouse worn by women (chaubandi cholo) and shawls (labeda sulwal). The traditional colours of Dhaka cloth are black, white, red and orange, but no two topis or shawls are identical: each has its own individual pattern, reflecting the creativity and skill of the weaver. The Nepali cap is lightly worn and brim-less, with a top creased corner resembling a peak, it is one of the symbols of Nepal and all officials wear it in government offices. While the formal cap is black, the daka topi is in many colours and elaborate designs. Although throughout Nepal factory-made cloth has replaced much of the traditional hand-woven material for clothing, the demand for the individually made Dhaka cloth has continued. Most men invest in a new topi for special occasions such as harvest festival or the new year (dasain). Often something unusual is sought, for example, a commission to design a topi (strips of 18 cm X 70 cm) with a new pattern to be worn at a wedding. Sometimes a bridegroom will wear full national dress made from Dhaka cloth.

    The Dhaka shawl (90-100 X 200 cm) is usually worn round the shoulders with the ends crossed over one shoulder so that the whole upper part of the body is enveloped; sometimes it is draped over the head. Since the early 1980s an amazing upsurge of Dhaka-cloth production has taken place since a wide range of yarns and colours became available to the weavers. Most weaving takes place during the dry session, October to March, when little field
