150 years of Association Football ~ How the Rules have changed
The official football rules – The Laws of the Game – were first written down in 1863. In the 150 years that have since passed, these rules have undergone significant changes. How much the game imagined by the writers of the initial laws differed from the modern game becomes clear by reading this timeline of fourty changes made to the 1863 Laws.
1865 – Introduction of tape between the goalposts to indicate a height limit, at eight feet (2.34 meter). Before, goals had no height limit.
1866 – Forward passes made legal, provided there are 3 defenders between the receiver and the goal. Previously, all attacking players in front of the ball were ‘offside’.
1866 – Catching the ball is no longer allowed. Before, players could earn a free kick by catching a ball before it bounced. This ban opened the way for the concept known as heading.
1869 – Goal kick now given when the ball crosses the goal line. Previously, whichever side would grab the ball first after it had passed the goal line, would get a free kick.
1871 – A specific goalkeeper officially recognized, who is allowed to handle the ball anywhere on the field.
1872 – Goalkeepers now only allowed to grab the ball on their own half.
1872 – Corner kick introduced.
1874 – Umpires introduced, one belonging to each side, who settle disputes. Before, all issues were settled by the team’s captains.
1874 – Teams have to change half after half-time, instead of after a goal.

1877 – Game duration fixed at 90 minutes.
1882 – Throw-ins with one hand declared illegal.
1891 – Penalty kick introduced, then known as ‘The Kick of Death’. Could be taken from anywhere on a 12 yard line from the goal. Introduced after a field player fisted the ball away in the last minute of a notorious FA Cup tie.

1891 – Introduction of the goal net.
