The man who drafted the Laws of the Game for Soccer (or "Association football") was a man called Ebenezer Cobb Morley. Morley, along with other co-authors, agreed the rules at a public house called the Freemasons Tavern in London on 26th October 1863. Morley became the Football Association's first secretary. He also founded the Barnes Football Club in 1962 which he captained against Richmond football club in the first ever soccer match. The game ended 0-0 but in a return game he scored the first ever goal. He died in 1924 and is buried at a Cemetery on Barnes Common not far from where he drafted the Laws of the game at 26 The Terrace, Barnes, London. A blue plaque commemorating his life's work was placed on the wall of this address by English Heritage in 2009.
The term soccer was first introduce in 1880's
In soccer, a goalie can take up to four steps while holding the ball before they are considered to have violated the rules.
A game similar to soccer was first played in Boston, Massachusetts in 1862 - this team was the first to play a sport unofficially recognized, retroactively speaking, as soccer. The game itself could not have been soccer as this predates the formulation of official soccer rules in 1872. The first attempt to form a governing body in American soccer happened in 1884, the same year as the foundation of the American Cup, which remained, for several decades, the highest-level tournament in the sport in the United States.

William Webb-Ellis invented rugby by picking up the ball and running with it.....whilst playing football, also known as soccer today.
It wasn't a football association per se that first came up with the rules for football. It was actually Cambridge University that first came up with the first set of rules (in 1848), and these rules were known as the Cambridge Ruleshttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cambridge_RulesAnswerThere are many forms of football the oldest of which Episkyros or Phaininda was played from the 4th Centaury BC in Ancient Greece. However, if you are specifically talking about Soccer, then I can state with absolute certainty that the man who drafted the 'Laws of the game' for 'Soccer' or 'Association football' was a man called Ebenezer Cobb Morley. Ebenezer along with other co-authors agreed the rules at a public house called the Freemasons Tavern in London on 26th October 1863. The rules were based on the earlier Cambridge Rules first drafted in 1848 which themselves were based on earlier attempts to standardise the different forms of football game which had been played in towns and villages in and around the British isles for hundreds of years. Morley became the Football Associations first secretary. He also founded the Barnes Football Club in 1862 which he captained against Richmond football club in the first ever soccer match. The game ended 0-0 but in a return game he scored the first ever goal. He died in 1924 and is buried at a Cemetery on Barnes Common not far from where he drafted the Laws of the game at 26 The Terrace, Barnes, London.
