  1. Native Americans made the first rubber balls and have been playing soccer since 1600BC. It was played in Maine before first contact with Europeans and know as pasuckquakkohowog. We now call it soccer. Please, do keep up!

  5. Feroz Shadowfax "ball filled with feathers and hair through an opening, measuring only 30-40cm in width, into a small net fixed onto long bamboo canes. " Sure doesn't sound like soccer... This sounds way more familiar to basketball I might add.

  20. Yu-Shan Lim wrong! Mesoamericans have been playing it with rubber balls since 1600 BC. It spread to North and South America and then into Eurasia. Native Americans in Maine were playing soccer when the Europeans first landed. Not that it matters but the Chinese people played much later and it was more of a basketball type of game.

  27. Ben Saber As far as soccer, we invented it and we can and will call it what we want. What do people ride when they play baseball, glof, soccer, tennis, basketball (like the Chinese game), kickball, rugby, or any track and field competition. North America keeps the world advancing. If your contry would step up or pay up, it would help. You're welcome!
