  Football Fundamentals - The...

  Football’s roots run deep, tracing back to ancient civilizations that played rudimentary games involving a ball and teams. These early sports, like harpastum in Rome or cuju in China, laid the foundation for modern team-based games. However, the gridiron game we recognize today began to take shape in the 19th century. 
  The origins of American football lie in two English sports: soccer and rugby. In the mid-1800s, colleges in the United States began to play their own variations of these games. Harvard, Princeton, and Yale were instrumental in experimenting with the rules, gradually distinguishing their style of play from soccer and rugby. The first intercollegiate game, played in 1869 between Rutgers and Princeton, resembled soccer more than the football we know today. Over the next few decades, the sport evolved significantly. 
  Walter Camp, often called the “Father of American Football,” revolutionized the game in the late 19th century. He introduced the line of scrimmage, the down-and-distance system, and the concept of the quarterback position. These changes brought structure and strategy to the game, creating a unique identity distinct from its English predecessors.

  A “brilliantly hilarious” and accessible guide to the rugby law book (Ben Shepherd). The laws of rugby are as extensive as they are confusing, their nuances and interpretations argued over relentlessly by rugby fans around the world and virtually impenetrable to those who are new to the game. In an effort to provide some much-needed clarity, Paul Williams takes an irreverent, hilarious, p*ss-taking tour through the labyrinth that is rugby’s rule book—or, for the pedantic, rugby’s law book. Hilarious, off-beat and (surprisingly) insightful, this is the perfect gift for rugby fans all around the world.Praise for Rugby Has F***ing Laws, Not Rules “This is great fun . . . you’ll learn about rugby’s laws with a big smile on your face. Made me chuckle lots.” —Rob Robertson, Daily Mail “The book I wish I’d written.” —Alex Payne, The Good, the Bad and the Rugby “A magnificent thing.” —Robbie Owen, Squidge Rugby “A light-hearted, jeering tour through the nuanced rules—sorry laws—of rugby union . . . as fun for the lifelong rugby fan as it is a genuinely helpful resource for someone new to the sport and its many law interpretations.” —Jessica Hayden, The Times “A very entertaining look at the laws, made me laugh out loud.” —James Hook
