Cobb Morley is the 'Father of Soccer'. Actually, he was English so he is the 'Father of "Football"'. In that way, yes he is the founder of a sort. Of course soccer started way back to undated times when soccer had no real rules. But Cobb Morley is the founder of todays soccer. He decided that there should be organized rules that are the same for the whole world. So he did. So, Yes, Cobb Morley is the founder and father of soccer (football! ;-p)
