Footy Soccer

SOCCER originated in reference to the action of a FOOTY kicking a ball, there is a rival explanation, which has it that football originally referred to a variety of games in medieval Europe, which were played on their footy. These games were usually played by peasants, as opposed to the horse-riding sports often played by aristocrats. The word football has always implied a variety of games played on foot, not just those that involved kicking a ball. In some cases, the word footy has even been applied to games which have specifically outlawed kicking a ball.
