The Cambridge Rules, written in 1848, first introduced the concept of offside.
I cant tell you WHO invented the offside rule, but it was introduced in some of the early football games. By early i don't mean 1977 i mean when the game was first played! I think they were describing it as: "You cant hang around the goal or you will be penalised!" Probably the very early 19th century. Hope this helps! ^_^

The first set of rules for soccer were made by the London Football Association in 1863.
NO holding. your lucky my bf is in football
The offside rule is used in winter sports such as American football and ice hockey.
There is no "offspring" in football. What you mean is probably the offside rule. The offside rule is one of the most debated and asked about rules. However it is quite simple. If the player is in front of the ball when it is passed and has not got at the least two defending players closer to the defending goal line than they are, she or he is said to be in an offside position.
It is not. It is exempt from the offside rule.
Yes Women very well especially the ones interested in football know the offside rule. only joking its a bit weird if they do. they should go and shop somewhere
English football uses the offside rule where at least on defender has to be between the attacker and the goal.
The sport of ice hockey, in the Winter Olympics, has an offside rule.
The offside is a very fair rule and has only one disadvantage and that is, the linesmen and referee have to make their decisions in a split second, with the naked eye and they often make mistakes, giving goals that were offside and ruling out goals when they were onside.
During a free kick , offside rule is valid .So if the attacker is in an offside position , the offside will be called .But if there is a throw I'm , then the offside rule is not valid which means one can receive the ball in an offside position in case of a throw in.
Yes, there is an offside penalty in American Football. The neutral zone is defined as the area extending from the tip of the football to each side of the field, so the neutral zone is as wide as the length of the football. No player, except the center, may have any part of his body in the neutral zone at the time the ball is snapped, otherwise they are guilty of being offside. On a kickoff, no player may have any part of his body across the line upon which the ball rests prior to the kick, except for the holder if one is used. The penalty for offside is 5 yards.
The Cambridge Rules, written in 1848, first introduced the concept of offside.
The original offside rule was that if any attacking player is ahead of the last defender when the ball is played then the attacking player must be given offside. The player must be given offside even if he doesn't receive the pass. The new rule is that the player can only be given offside if he is interfering with play i.e. he receives the ball, he obstructs defending players, blcoks the goalkeepers view, etc.
