Runnymede F.C
Runnymede F.C. was an English association football club from Egham, Surrey, founded in 1876. History The club's first recorded match was in November 1876 against St Mark's of Windsor. Despite having a full fixture list in 1876–77 and 1877–78, the club disbanded in 1878. The club relied on players from St Mark's and the University of Cambridge - mostly old Etonians - and in October 1878 its players decided to throw in their lot with the Gitanos club, another club with Etonian links. The decision came after the club had played its only tie in the FA Cup. Its 1878–79 FA Cup first round match with Panthers of Sturminster Newton, at home, ended in a draw, and the club disbanded before playing the replay. Colours The club played in light blue and brown quarters, which, in the context of the times, usually referred to halves. Ground The Runnymede Club Ground was at the Railway Inn, a quarter of a mile from Egham railway station. Famous players * Harry Goodhart, wh ...

Association Football
Association football, more commonly known as football or soccer, is a team sport played between two teams of 11 players who primarily use their feet to propel the ball around a rectangular field called a pitch. The objective of the game is to score more goals than the opposition by moving the ball beyond the goal line into a rectangular framed goal defended by the opposing side. Traditionally, the game has been played over two 45 minute halves, for a total match time of 90 minutes. With an estimated 250 million players active in over 200 countries, it is considered the world's most popular sport. The game of association football is played in accordance with the Laws of the Game, a set of rules that has been in effect since 1863 with the International Football Association Board (IFAB) maintaining them since 1886. The game is played with a football that is in circumference. The two teams compete to get the ball into the other team's goal (between the posts and under t ...
