Football game
The football has become so popular India that practically it's ousted our country game. The great mass interest it evokes had led to its progress almost everywhere .
The game is play between two teams of eleven players each. A senior and experience player is selected on each side from among its player as Captain to guide them in attack and defence. Players are arranged in the following order . I.e one goal keeper preventing the ball from passing through the goal posts. 2 . Two defenders called'' backs''' standing on little distance from goal posts. , 3 three half backs , standing in a line mideway between the forwards and backs functioning both defensively and offensively, 4 five forwards standing in a line , one at the centre , two wings-men ( one at each end of the line ) and two ins who standing between middle and wings-men .the forwards are two carry on the offensive and score goals.
The general size of the ground is 120 yards by 80 yards. Two upright posts placed 8 yards apart with a cross bar 8 feet. from the ground stand at each end of the field. To score a goal means the Ball must pass between the two goal posts. Two linesmen are engaged to mark out of the exact Spot where the Ball is ' out' of it's range, and to decide which party has the right to' throw ' the Ball . The centre- man of one of the parties the starts by kicking off the Ball placed at the centre of the field. .

The referee's is rather a thankless task - to enforce the rules and give decisions on the all disputed points. His decision are final so far as the facts of the game are concerned.
