What merely began as an unorganized activity soon became widely-played, with the formation of several football clubs. It also came to be a part of Physical Education in colonial schools, and its practice started to be identified as a sign of prestige.

If you thought that was a plot for some action movie shoot-out, you’re mistaken. We’re talking about Football. Football has a long history. Although the origin of the game is not clearly documented, evidence shows that ancient Greeks and Romans played many ball games some of which involved the use of feet. After several centuries, the game was reinvented by the English. Football has evolved over a very long period of time and has branched out into several categories - Rugby football, American football, Canadian football, Gaelic football and Australian Rules football. Today, football is a widely-watched game and has fans all over the world. Little did our Greek and Roman forefathers know that their casual kicks would kickoff a world-famous sport!]]></description><category>The Cameroon- Football Connection</category><author>ajax</author><pubDate>Tue, 16 Sep 2008 01:45:57 -0700</pubDate><guid isPermalink="false">trailfire:markId:240480</guid></item><item><title>For Your Football Goal&amp;hellip;</title><link>http://trailfire.com/ajax/marks/240489</link><description><![CDATA[<P STYLE="margin-top: 0.19in; margin-bottom: 0.19in; line-height: 115%;"><FONT SIZE="2"><FONT FACE="Verdana, sans-serif">Do you love football?
