Overview of Football Codes and History by Jitendra Pandey is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Football refers to a group of sports involving kicking a ball to score goals. There are several codes of football that vary in rules but involve kicking or carrying the ball between two goals. The earliest evidence of football-like games comes from ancient China, though many ancient cultures had similar ball games. Over time, the modern codes of football like association football and American football developed from earlier traditional games, and grew to be popular worldwide in the 20th century.
