Soccer is referred to as football in the United Kingdom.Answer'Soccer' is alternative name for 'Association Football'. The word Soccer started as a phonetically abbreviated vernacular word for Association football coined by English public school students who took the 'soc' from 'Association' and put an 'er' on the end. The same students called Rugby football 'Rugger' but this word has largely fallen out of use. Typically an Oxford University student who played Association football and Rugby football would be described as "an Oxforder who plays Soccer and Rugger". Association Football was coded in 1863 and this is why prior to this the word Soccer did not exist.

The word comes from the English propensity to at "er" to the end of words, and was meant to delineate certain football clubs with varying rules, (such as rugby was being split off as its own sport) and "Association Football", with more stringent rules traditional rules. The word started out as "Assoccer", and very quickly was adapted to "Soccer".
