Report

While the origins of Football may go back to Ancient Egypt, Greece, China, Rome or Medieval Britain, or even Renaissance Italy (Florence), the first organised football matches in America, that were played under American rules, were those of the Oneida Football Club in Boston. The Oneida FC were teenagers in Boston who tired of both Rugby and Soccer (Association Football) and developed their own game whereby the running of the former and goal kicking of the latter were employed.

The “Boston Game” as it was dubbed by the Press was deemed important enough for it to be mentioned in a short column in the Boston newspapers. The game of football had previously been played in America back as far as the 1820s, at least in Universities, but was more of a mass brawl intended to initiate freshmen into University and was outlawed by the College authorities.

In 1869 the first Inter-Collegiate game of Football, under the London Football Association rules was played in Rutgers, New Jersey, with Rutgers winning out 6-4 over the Princeton Tigers. The Tigers got revenge the following week under their own rules, which favoured their height advantage winning 8-0.

In 1870 Rutgers beat Columbia, but lost to Princeton. The following year there was no Football (as America sees Football) but plenty of Soccer, with the Cornell Football Association founded in 1870 and the Princeton Football association in 1871.

In 1872, Yale and Princeton both went 1-0-0 (Wins-Losses-Ties), with Columbia posting a 1-2-1 record and Rutgers 1-1-1. Harvard opted out of these games preferring the “Boston Game” and in 1873 those four colleges, minus Harvard formed the first Inter-Collegiate Football Association.

In 1874, Harvard with no opponent in America to play its “Boston Game” against, looked to McGill University in Montreal, which played Rugby. After one game in Harvard which the hosts won 3-0 in the Boston Game, abandoned after 22 minutes due to it being a rout, the following day the teams met under McGill’s Rugby rules, playing out a 0-0 tie.

Harvard liked the idea of a touchdown, as used in McGill’s Rugby Rules, so much they adopted it for their own game and persuaded the Elis of Yale to play against them using the rules in 1875, with Harvard winning 4-0.

In 1876, the “Father of American Football”, Walter Camp started playing, who would later become famous for devising the first American Code of Football, utilizing the Goal Kick, Running with the Ball, Touchdowns, Scrimmage (which meant the creation of the quarterback) and Points for different types of scoring (2 for a Safety, 4 for a Touchdown, 2 for a Goal following a Touchdown “Point After Touchdown” or “Conversion”) and 5 for a Goal from Play (“Field Goal”).

Report

Buhos Colima and Patriotas Chihuatlan won their respective groups (Red and Green) in the Zona Occidente (Western Zone) in the LEXFA (Liga Extrema de Football Arena) Mexico League in 2013.

Patriotas may be a reference to those who fought against the invading United Sates Army in the Mexican-US war of 1847, when John Riley, an Irish-American crossed the border to fight for the mainly Catholic Mexico, along with a band of soldiers, who fought under the banner ‘Battalón de San Patricio’.

LEXFA is an Arena (8v8 Indoor) version of American Football that has become quite popular in Mexico. A team called the Irish, who used the Notre Dame Fighting Irish logo played in a lower division in the National League.
