generations.
•These are sports with formalized rules and structures.
•They are usually played for fun, celebration, or fitness, rather
than for serious competition.
•Some traditional sports are unique to small communities,
while others are common childhood games played in schoolyards
around the world,(Maryuni& Nasrulloh, (2022)
•Examples of these traditional games: soccer, rugby, crickets etc.

3. Introduction of soccer

the most popular and widely played sport globally,
bringing together millions of players and fans across
cultures and continents.
•It is a team sport played between two sides of eleven
players each, with the main objective of scoring goals by
getting the ball into the opponent’s net without using hands
or arms, except by the goalkeeper.
•Soccer is governed by standardized rules, it is the result of
centuries of evolution from ancient ball games to the highly
organized competitions seen today, for example the FIFA
World Cup.

different regions and cultures throughout history.
•Civilizations such as the Chinese, Japanese, Italians,
Ancient Greeks, Persians, and Vikings, among others,

games were played to help prepare soldiers for combat.As
time went on, the game spread into Europe, which later
became a central region for the development of modern
soccer,(Murray& Murray,(1998))
•In England, football was once viewed as violent and
immoral. Because of its rough nature, it was banned by
Nicholas de Farndone, who was the Mayor of
Londonatthetime,(Luna, ( 2012))
