how would you play it Many of the world's greatest sports are primarily played individually: golf, boxing, tennis, darts, snooker, and many more. ONE-A-SIDE FOOTBALL is combining the world's greatest sport, football, with the competitive individuality of those sports in an organised league and tournament-based way, where people can win money and prizes.
Sounds horrendous. One of the best things about football is the interplay between teams. What made football a decent spectator sport was when the Victorians realised that they could pass the ball to each other rather than the player who won the ball back just dribbling until he was tackled.
Yeh and it says you need to be fit and have some football skills I think you just need to be able to run fast ...... .........?.?.??
or have a great shot from your own eighteen yard box. make the other bloke run up and down all day til he collapses.
Was just going to say that we used to play one touch in the sports hall 1v1 after school when I was a kid. Totally favoured me as the one thing I had (other than headless chicken pace) was a good long shot aim. As for other versions of 1v1 I'd imagine it would be like hockey penalties - maybe taking it in turn?
Used to play "house golf" at university with a tennis ball and a cup. You threw the ball, just to clarify.
As a youngen we played 'gates' where it was each player defending their own gate and trying to score other player gates.
Kicking a ball is always fun, no matter how many of you there are. Doesn't make it a decent spectator sport though.
