These words from the FIFA Laws of the Game: "The decisions of the referee regarding facts connected with play are final." Actually, all 17 Laws of the Game are equally important. It could be posited that any match can hinge on the call by an official regarding any one of these rules; it could make a difference in the game. It could make the difference. Some of the silliest little things can translate into major difficulties. There is wisdom in casting the Laws of the Game as one single unit. They form a complete foundation upon which to build a fair and safe competition. One that may be enjoyed by almost anyone at almost any age and at almost any skill level. From the "busy" U-6 match where the ball cannot be seen through the forest of little legs to the swift, powerful and elegantly played match that may be a World Cup final, the game is predicated upon a common understanding that has as its basis the Laws of the Game. This spare and inspired set of restrictions and their interpretation permits the true stars of the game, the players, to emerge and show themselves. Permits them and those who follow the Game to derive a maximum of joy and satisfaction for having participated in something as large and as encompassing as Soccer (or Football), none of which is possible without the commonality of the Laws of the Game to bind participants together.
