英语词汇rugby的起源、历史背景-英语词源词典

rugby. In 1823 at a football game at the Rugby School in En- gland, a young player named William Ellis picked up the ball and ran down field with it, an unsportsmanlike maneuver at the time for which Ellis profusely apologized. But his play caught on and began to be imitated by other players, which of course inspired the defense to stop the ball carriers by tackling them, another practice unthinkable under the old rules of the game. This type of football began to be called rugby football or simply rugby and another rule of the new game allowed a player to run with the ball if it was caught on the fly or on the first bounce. Players who preferred the old, no-ball-carrying foot- ball formed the London Football Association in 1863 and pub- lished their own rules. Their brand of football was called asso- ciation football, which became assoc football. Assoc football was shortened to soc, to which an er ending was added, giving us the word soccer for the game. See football.
