Without the offsides rule defenders could bomb the ball all the way across the field, pass the other teams defenders. Then a forward or striker could easily tap the ball right pass the keeper for a easy goal. This strategy would be almost impossible to avoid being played on in pro soccer if offsides didn't existe as u spelled exist
The Cambridge Rules, written in 1848, first introduced the concept of offside.
Offside was not introduced as a separate rule. English football has always had offside. The earliest sets of rules which were drawn up in the nineteenth century all included an offside rule.
It is not. It is exempt from the offside rule.
The sport of ice hockey, in the Winter Olympics, has an offside rule.
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.
The offside rule is used in winter sports such as American football and ice hockey.
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 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.
There is currently no offside rule in field hockey. There were prior offside rules, rules that restricted the positioning of players from the attacking team in a way similar to the offside rule in soccer. The offside rules were changed as the rules of field hockey changed. The evolution of the field hockey offside rule culminated with its abolition in the mid 1990s.
all of it.
