	Football (soccer): Definition and Links by Encyclopedian.com
		Football, also called soccer and referred to colloquially as footie, is the most popular team sport[?] in the world in both number of spectators and number of active participants.
		The rules of football are known as Laws of Football[?] [1] (http://www.fifa.com/refs/laws-E.html) and are based on efforts made in the mid-19th century to standardise the rules of the widely varying games of football played at the public schools and universities of England[?].
		A number of revised rules were subsequently proposed, most notably by the Sheffield football club (formed by former pupils from Harrow) in 1857 and the rules of JC Thring in 1862.

		The minor Arena Football League (1987-present) plays an indoor adaptation of American football, at a faster pace, on a smaller field with no built-in sidelines -- the edges of the grid are coincident with padded walls similar to those found in a baseball outfield.
		However, rugby league does have a similar system where each side is allowed to be tackled five times while in possession (see the entry for rugby league for an explanation of the play-the-ball and the limited tackles rule).
		In the decade of the 2000s, the increasing economic stakes in sports, changed attitudes outside football regarding acceptable behaviour towards women, and the perception of uncontrolled use of steroids, all have played a part in an increase in public concern about football's role.

	John Quiggin » Blog Archive » Soccer or Football
		The various football codes are roughly contemporaneous, and the term football has always been used generically (also to refer to particular codes when there is no great danger of confusion).
		I think the preciousness of association football supporters in Australia on the football/soccer debate has to be seen in the context of their not-quite-convincing evangelical triumphalism about Australia making a World Cup finals series of 32 countries (which is a more modest achievement than John Warren and Co. making the final 16 in 1974).
		If this theory is correct, Australia’s soccer boosters can expect a protracted period of some decades of post-World Cup coexistence, and scrapping for supporter conversions at the margins, with the AFL and the rugby codes.

		The most popular of these are Association Football (also known as soccer), American football, Rugby football, Australian Rules football, Gaelic football, and Canadian football.
		I don't think it's correct to include Gaelic football or Australian Rules Football under "Warwickshire", unless there is some cource which says that Gaelic took it's inspiration from previous varieties being played in Warwickshire, which I doubt!
		Although there is no proof of the link between Gaelic and Australian Rules, the similarities are strong (reflected in the cross over of players and the International Rules matches), and the original influence of Rugby on Aussie Rules has now all but disappeared.
