The contemporary historyof the world's favourite game spans more than 100 years. It all began in 1863 in
England, when rugby football and association football branched off on their different courses and the
FootballAssociationinEngland was formed - becoming the sport'sfirst governing body.
Both codes stemmed from a common root and both have a long and intricatelybranched ancestral tree. A
search down the centuries reveals at least half a dozen different games, varying to different degrees, and to
which the historical development of football has been traced back. Whether this can be justified in some

instances is disputable. Nevertheless, the fact remains that people have enjoyed kicking a ball about for
thousands of years and there is absolutelyno reasonto consider it an aberrationof the more 'natural'form
of playing a ballwith the hands.
On the contrary, apart from the need to employthe legs and feet in tough tusslesfor the ball, often without
any laws for protection, it was recognised right at the outset that the art of controlling the ball with the feet
was not easy and, as such, required no small measure of skill. The very earliest form of the game for which
there is scientific evidence was an exercise from a military manual dating back to the second and third
centuriesBC inChina.
ThisHanDynasty forebearof footballwas calledTsu' Chu and itconsistedof kicking aleatherball filled with
feathers and hair through an opening, measuring only 30-40cm in width, into a small net fixed onto long
bamboo canes. According to one variationof this exercise, the player was not permitted to aim at his target
unimpeded, but had to use his feet, chest, back and shoulders while trying to withstand the attacks of his
opponents. Use of the hands was not permitted.
Another form of the game, also originating from the Far East, was the Japanese Kemari, which began some
500-600years later and isstill played today. This is a sport lacking the competitive element ofTsu' Chu with
no struggle for possessioninvolved.Standing in a circle, the players had to pass the ball to each other, in a
relativelysmall space, trying not to let it touch the ground.
The Greek 'Episkyros' - of which few concrete details survive - was much livelier, as was the Roman
'Harpastum'. The latter was played out with a smaller ball by two teams on a rectangular field marked by
boundarylines and a centreline. The objective was to get the ballover the opposition'sboundarylinesand as
players passedit betweenthemselves, trickerywas the order ofthe day. The game remained popular for 700-
800 years, but, althoughthe Romans tookit toBritainwith them, the use offeet was so smallas to scarcelybe
of consequence.

Important Tournaments:
 FIFA: There is no greater competition than the World Cup. The European Championship may have a
greater variety of winners. The Champions League may provide better football. However, nothing
matches the prestige of lifting the FIFA World Cup. The World Cup pips the Champions League to the
No. 1 spot becauseof the enormous cultural impact thata victorycan have. Nothing unites a nationlike
being crowned the best inthe world.

15.

 The UEFA Champions League: It is the most glamorous club competition in world football. This
tournament brings together the greatest teams in the world. As the financial clout of club football has
grown, ithas managed to supersedeinternationalfootball.In termsofthe qualityofplayonthe field, the
Champions League isnowthe besttournamentthere is.Although the pureknockout form ofthe original
European Cup is still missed, the re-branding as the Champions League has helped turn Europe into
football's most financially powerful continent. There is no club competition to match the Champions
League.
 The UEFA European Championship:The first pan-Europeaninternational tournament was held in
1958 in France. In the intervening 55 years, the European Championship has establisheditselfas one of
world football's most exciting competitions. The European Championship is characterised by its
unusually competitive nature: The 14 tournaments to date have produced nine different winners.
Germanyand Spaincurrentlylead the field withthree triumphseach.In 2014, the competitionexpanded
from 16 to 24 teams, prompting concerns thatthe increaseinsize may precipitatea drop in quality.

 The Copa America: It is the oldest existing continental football competition. The first formal Copa
America was held inArgentina in 1916 to commemorate the first century of Argentina's independence.
The competitioninvolves the teams associatedwith CONMEBOL as well as two othernations, frequently
Mexico, CostaRica ortheUnited States.AlthoughBrazil and Argentina are regularlyreferredtoas South
American football's "Big Two," current holders Uruguay are in fact the competition's most successful
team with 15 wins to date.
 The CopaLibertadores:Itisthe South American equivalent of the
Champions League. The Libertadorestrophy is the most coveted prize in South American club football,
and the competition's final is broadcast in an incredible 135 countries across the globe. The Copa has
extraordinary cultural currency in South America. It has spawned the Spanish phrase "El Sueno
Libertador,"referring to the dream of lifting the historicprize aloft. Since the competition'sinceptionin

17.
17
1960, many have chased that dream. Argentine club Independiente are the most successful team in the
competition'shistory,having claimed the Copa a phenomenal seventimes.
 The UEFA Europa League: It is the much-maligned successor to the UEFA Cup. As the Champions
League'syounger and lessglamoroussibling,the EuropaLeague is vulnerabletosniperswho criticisethe
competition'senormousfixture listand plethoraof dead-rubberties. However, a glance at the recentlist
of winners suggests that European football's major clubs still take the competition seriously. Chelsea,
Atletico Madrid and Porto have all experienced the joy of Europa League triumph in the last few
seasons.In2003, PortowereEuropa League Champions.A year later,theyliftedthe Champions League.
 Africa Cup ofNations:Africaisacontinentthatis seeminglyinlovewith football.This tournamentpits
Africa's greatest international sides against each other in a fascinating battle for supremacy. The
continent's mostsuccessful side isEgypt. Theyhave won the tournament a recordseven times, although
theyhave not yet managed totransfer thiscontinental successto theglobal stage. The competitionisnot
without its flaws. The Africa Cup of Nations generally takes place in January, meaning that many

18.
18
European-basedplayers are forced to abandon theirclubsto take part. This has led to the withdrawal of
some ofAfrica's major stars.If the tournament is toretainitsstatus,it mayneed to move inline with the
Europeancalendar.
 FA Cup:Itis arguablythe most famous domestic competitioninthe world.Established inJuly1871, itis
the oldest associationfootball competition in the world. The FA Cup has produced some of English
football'smosticonicmomentsand ispartlyresponsibleforWembley'sstatusas"The Homeof Football."
English clubs from the Premier League right down to the fifth tier ofthe FA National League are invited
to compete. The tournament has subsequently become known for "giant killings": occasions when
minnows overcome theodds to defeat a clubwith far greater resources.The2013 final was a caseinpoint,
as Roberto Martinez's gutsyWigan side showed remarkablebravery and disciplineto beat the financial
superpower thatis Manchester City.
 The ConfederationsCup: Itrosetoprominencein2005whenitwasestablishedasavitalforerunnertotheWorldCup.

tournament. The ConfederationsCup allows FIFA to assess a nation's preparations for the arrival of their mostprestigious
tournament. More importantly, it is a chance for the host nation to pit themselves againstsome of the world's best aheadof

Basic First-Aid Techniques
Bruises– To treat bruising and swelling, the first aider will need to applyice onthe affected area for about 15
minutes at a time every two hours making sure to put a cloth or towel between the ice and the skin. A day or
two after the bruisingor swelling develops; you should applya heat packor warm clothto the affected area.
Bleeding (cut, graze or scratch wounds) – These could be minor, here the first aider will need to put on
disposablegloves, cleanthe cuts with a dry steriledressing or cleanlint-free material,apply pressureto stop

34.
34
the bleeding thendab with ointment or gel and protect with a sterilebandage. A deep wound will have to be
referred to a hospitalafter following the minor injury procedure.
Head & Face injuries – These injuries could be serious and are associated with concussion (impaired
consciousness),cuts, skull fractures,neck or spinal break. The First Aider’s immediateaim is to let the player
lie down gently whilst avoiding turning the player’s head- this is to maintainan openairway, check for pulse
& breathingand recordall vital signalsof response.If the player is unconscious,the airway should be opened
with a jaw thrusttechnique inorder tofeel breathingthenproceed bycalling outto the player iftheycanhear
you or open their eyes but if no response, the coach then need to carry out chest compressionalso known as
the CPR [ placing one or two hands in the centre of the chest using the heel of the hands with arms straight
to pressdownabout30 timesatthe rate of100-120 p/min] thenperformthe rescuebreathmethod [make sure
the airway isopen, seal your lips around the child’s mouth and blowgently into their lungs. If the chest rises,
stopblowing to allowit tofall thenrepeatthis5 timesuntiltheyshowsignsof recoveryor untilpropermedical
assistancearrives.
Asthma Attack – Asthma is a medical conditionthat attacks the muscles ofthe air passages when the tubes
that carryair in and out of the lungs become narrowed therebymaking it difficult to breathe. To administer
firstaid,help the player to sitina comfortablepositiontoease breathing and reassurethem. If theyhave their
inhaler let them take 3-5 puffs according to the asthma plan given to them by their doctor but if the player
has none, then the coach need to reach for one from the first-aidkit. The coach should or would have known
about the player’sconditionfrom the medicalinformationsubmittedin theirregistration.
Ankle, Footor Toe injuries –wheninjuries tothese areasare minor, theyare usuallytreatedat home torelieve
symptoms and promote healing but incase they are serious, the first-aideror the coach will need to take the
appropriatemeasuresindealing with the affected areas using any of the following first-aidtechniques.

 Witha brokenbone, it is not advisableto push the bone backinto the skin ifit issticking out but to leave
it as itis by carefullycovering the affected area with a cleanbandage or hold togetherwith a splint.
 With sprained ankle or toe injury, the first thing to do is to use the P.R.I.C.E method (Protect, Rest, Ice,
Compression and Elevation) to reduce the swelling and pain, also use soft padding bandage. If pain
persists then an assessment need to made to ascertain whether a visit to the specialist is warranted
however if it is pain free, try massaging gently to allow the flow of blood whilst avoiding hot substances
such as hot water or heat gels until 48-72hrs and then start gentle exercises of movement & strength
without too much strain.
BackPain – Mostly, footballers feel painin the lower back. If this happens, there are various types of simple
treatmentsthat canbe applied:
 Walking- Taking a briskwalk for about10-20mins every 2hrs might do the trick.
 Heat Therapy- Hotpool bath could be useful for some playerswhilst cold compressiontherapy(ice pack)
may be suitedto others.
 Exerciseslike flexible stretchingcould be effective inrelieving pain however this should be done with due
care so as not to aggravate the pain.
 Massage Therapy, massaging may be more appropriate remedy, visiting an experienced massage
therapistcould be the answer to ending the back painproblems.
 Medicines, using simple pain relieving medicines like Ibuprofen or Paracetamol, might just be the
solution.
Muscle Pulls–Theinitialfirst-aidtreatmentisto protect the affected area byapplying soft padding and then
resume the P.R.I.C.E method which will acceleratehealing, reduce swelling and keep the blood from clotting
in the injured area but if thereis a severe pain thena visitto a medical expert is advisable as thismight be a
signof brokenbone, sprainor muscle tear.
