With the recent availability of digitized old newspapers and magazines, much more foot ball data have been found for the 1800s. The games are again divided into three basic forms of foot ball; but now are listed under the actual style names used at the times played. They are the Kicking Game\/Association Football (now soccer), Carrying Game\/Boston Rules Game\/American Rugby Game\/ English Rugby Union (now rugby) and the Ball-Control Game\/American Collegiate Game\/American Rugby Football (now football).Within these basic forms, the games are listed under colleges, independent clubs and high schools. There is a chapter on leagues\/conferences and the appendices contain team histories with the types of foot ball played.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Melvin I.
