Medieval football
Medieval football is a modern term sometimes used for a wide variety of localised football games which were invented and played in Europe during the Middle Ages. Alternative names include folk football, mob football and Shrovetide football. These games may be regarded as the ancestors of modern codes of football, and by comparison with later forms of football, the medieval matches were chaotic and had few rules.
The Middle Ages saw a huge rise in popularity of games played annually at Shrovetide throughout Europe, particularly in England. The games played in England at this time may have arrived with the Roman occupation but there is little evidence to indicate this. Certainly the Romans played ball games, in particular Harpastum. There is also one reference to ball games being played in southern Britain prior to the Norman Conquest. In the ninth century Nennius's Historia Britonum tells that a group of boys were playing at ball (pilae ludus). The origin of this account is either Southern England or Wales. References to a ball game played in northern France known as La Soure or Choule, in which the ball was propelled by hands, feet, and sticks, date from the 12th century.

Brutal Atherstone Ball Game 2020 takes place in the UK
The annual Atherstone Ball Game took place in Warwickshire this afternoon (Tuesday 25 Feb 2020). The Pancake Day tradition saw hundreds of eager competitors battling to gain control of an oversized ball. Sadly, the event was halted early after a medical emergency involving one of the stewards. His condition, at present, is still unknown. The match, which always takes place on Shrove Tuesday, dates back to medieval times and the two main rules are that you are not allowed to kill anyone, and that whoever holds the ball when time is up is declared the winner. The game honours a match played between Leicestershire and Warwickshire in 1199, when teams used a bag of gold as a ball. Shops in the town are boarded up in preparation for its staging, while local children are allowed to leave school...

Ashbournes Royal Shrovetide Football - the world's biggest football match.
The annual Royal Shrovetide football game is said to be the world's oldest, largest, longest, and angriest football game. Last year the game was cancelled owing to the Covid pandemic and organisers asked this year’s participants to take a coronavirus test before play. The game is played between the Up'ards, those born north of the River Henmore that divides the town, and the Down'ards, those born south of the river. The game is played with a hand-painted, cork-filled ball. The pitch is a no man’s land between two watermills, Sturston Mill and Clifton Mill, which serve as the goals at either end of the town about three miles apart. Any number may play in this very thinly refereed game, providing they can claim to be Up'ards or Down'ard's. The game can last for up many and rarely i...

The Kirkwall Ba' Game - Mob football
The ancient Ba' Game is a version of mob football played in Scotland, primarily in Orkney. The Kirkwall Ba' Game (known locally as The Ba') is one of the main annual events held in the town of Kirkwall, in Orkney, Scotland.

The annual Royal Shrovetide football game is said to be the world's oldest, largest, longest, and angriest football game.
Last year the game was cancelled owing to the Covid pandemic and organisers asked this year’s participants to take a coronavirus test before play.
The game is played between the Up'ards, those born north of the River Henmore that divides the town, and the Down'ards, those born south of the river.
The game is played with a hand-painted, cork-filled ball.
The pitch is a no man’s land between two watermills, Sturston Mill and Clifton Mill, which serve as the goals at either end of the town about three miles apart.
Any number may play in this very thinly refereed game, providing they can claim to be Up'ards or Down'ard's.
The game can last for up many and rarely is there a goal scored. Although this year a goal was scored in daylight which is very rare. Most games end in a nil-nil scoreline, hardly surprising considering the size of the pitch and the number of players involved.
Not many things have interrupted the Shrovetide game since 1891 and it even continued through two world wars. Foot-and-mouth disease canceled the games in 1968 and 2002. So, after a two-year gap due to Covid participants and crowds being larger than normal.
The game has little to do with the beautiful game, as we know it. It has few rules - murder and manslaughter are barred though.
It is a moving brawl that continues through the roads of the town, across fields, and even along the bed of the local river. To those playing, trying to see where the ball is can be a challenge.
The ball was ‘turned up’ meaning thrown in at 2pm. Most of the action was around the narrow streets of Ashbourne. The boisterous play disturbs local traffic and local traders. Shopkeepers in preparation for the two-day match often board up their shop windows for protection.
The majority of the play is a series of rugby-type scrimmages known as "Hugs". Very occasionally the ball does break free, and onlookers who number in their hundreds can finally see some action. If and when a goal is scored, the scorer is allowed to keep the ball and drink as much ale as they can consume.
The Up’Ards scored first on the first day with a goal James Lyon. He ‘goaled” the ball at Sturston Mill at 5:32 pm, some 3 and half hours after the ball was thrown in.
As a goal was scored before 6 PM, the game was resumed and the down’ards scored an equaliser at around 9.30 pm from Nathan Harrison, to conclude day 1 of the event.
These are the rushes from the day.

The 823rd Atherstone Ball Game took place in Warwickshire this afternoon (February 21). The last half an hour of the Pancake Day tradition saw punches thrown and a betting shop damaged as teams battled to gain control of an oversized ball.

The match, which always takes place on Shrove Tuesday, dates back to medieval times and the two main rules are that you are not allowed to kill anyone, and that whoever holds the ball when time is up is declared the winner.

The ancient Ba' Game is a version of mob football played in Scotland, primarily in Orkney.
The Kirkwall Ba' Game (known locally as The Ba') is one of the main annual events held in the town of Kirkwall, in Orkney, Scotland.
It is one of a number of Ba' Games played in the streets of towns around Scotland; these are examples of medieval football games that are still played in towns in the United Kingdom and worldwide. The games are played twice a year, normally on Christmas Day and New Year's Day, unless those days fall on a Sunday in which case the game is moved to the following day.
Played in the town centre of Kirkwall, the two sides are the Uppies and the Doonies, or more correctly, "Up-the-Gates" and "Doon-the-Gates" from Norn gata (path or road), although it is also common in Scots. The tradition belongs to Kirkwall and the surrounding area of St Ola and has always been played by men from those two areas since before records began.

The game is now majorly extinct and it is not played anywhere else in the world however mob football matches are still played today as Royal Shrovetide Football, in the streets of Ashbourne, Derbyshire UK.
The basic objective of the game is to score more goals than the opponent.
It is believed that in medieval times, the game was contested between two neighboring towns that had teams of their own with an unlimited number of players.
The basic objective of the game for each player was to carry an inflated pigskin ball to the end of the opponent's town.
The game was considered extremely violent because the only rule in this game was that players were not allowed to engage in murder and manslaughter.
Other than killing the person, the players were allowed to employ whatever tactic they desire to move the ball towards the destination.
The match of Mob Football used to take place once annually where it used to continue for two straight days, Shrove Tuesday and Ash Wednesday.
According to the sources, the game used to start at 2 pm and end at 10 pm each day.
In the match, players were not allowed to use motor vehicles to chase the ball or gain possession.
Players were also prohibited from hiding the ball while they were taking it to their goal.
Players were allowed to pass the ball among their teammates as they used to charge towards their own goal.
It was banned for the players to cross cemeteries or town memorial gardens to maintain the sacredness of those places.
On reaching the goal, the players were required to tap the ball thrice inside the goal region to score the goal.
The first team that managed to score the most goals by the end of the play was declared as the winner.

The annual Atherstone Ball Game took place in Warwickshire this afternoon (Tuesday 25 Feb 2020). The Pancake Day tradition saw hundreds of eager competitors battling to gain control of an oversized ball. Sadly, the event was halted early after a medical emergency involving one of the stewards. His condition, at present, is still unknown.
The match, which always takes place on Shrove Tuesday, dates back to medieval times and the two main rules are that you are not allowed to kill anyone, and that whoever holds the ball when time is up is declared the winner. The game honours a match played between Leicestershire and Warwickshire in 1199, when teams used a bag of gold as a ball. Shops in the town are boarded up in preparation for its staging, while local children are allowed to leave school early on that day. The two-hour game is played in the town's main street. In 2019, the game was labelled in the media as “the most brutal sport on Earth.”

The annual Royal Shrovetide football game is said to be the world's oldest, largest, longest, and angriest football game.
Last year the game was cancelled owing to the Covid pandemic and organisers asked this year’s participants to take a coronavirus test before play.
The game is played between the Up'ards, those born north of the River Henmore that divides the town, and the Down'ards, those born south of the river.
The game is played with a hand-painted, cork-filled ball.
The pitch is a no man’s land between two watermills, Sturston Mill and Clifton Mill, which serve as the goals at either end of the town about three miles apart.
Any number may play in this very thinly refereed game, providing they can claim to be Up'ards or Down'ard's.
The game can last for up many and rarely is there a goal scored. Although this year a goal was scored in daylight which is very rare. Most games end in a nil-nil scoreline, hardly surprising considering the size of the pitch and the number of players involved.
Not many things have interrupted the Shrovetide game since 1891 and it even continued through two world wars. Foot-and-mouth disease canceled the games in 1968 and 2002. So, after a two-year gap due to Covid participants and crowds being larger than normal.
The game has little to do with the beautiful game, as we know it. It has few rules - murder and manslaughter are barred though.
It is a moving brawl that continues through the roads of the town, across fields, and even along the bed of the local river. To those playing, trying to see where the ball is can be a challenge.
The ball was ‘turned up’ meaning thrown in at 2pm. Most of the action was around the narrow streets of Ashbourne. The boisterous play disturbs local traffic and local traders. Shopkeepers in preparation for the two-day match often board up their shop windows for protection.
The majority of the play is a series of rugby-type scrimmages known as "Hugs". Very occasionally the ball does break free, and onlookers who number in their hundreds can finally see some action. If and when a goal is scored, the scorer is allowed to keep the ball and drink as much ale as they can consume.
The Up’Ards scored first on the first day with a goal James Lyon. He ‘goaled” the ball at Sturston Mill at 5:32 pm, some 3 and half hours after the ball was thrown in.
As a goal was scored before 6 PM, the game was resumed and the down’ards scored an equaliser at around 9.30 pm from Nathan Harrison, to conclude day 1 of the event.
These are the rushes from the day.

The 823rd Atherstone Ball Game took place in Warwickshire this afternoon (February 21). The last half an hour of the Pancake Day tradition saw punches thrown and a betting shop damaged as teams battled to gain control of an oversized ball. The winning team managed to secrete the ball in the doorway of bookmaker's 'William Hill'.
The match, which always takes place on Shrove Tuesday, dates back to medieval times and the two main rules are that you are not allowed to kill anyone, and that whoever holds the ball when time is up is declared the winner. The game honours a match played between Leicestershire and Warwickshire in 1199, when teams used a bag of gold as a ball.

The ancient Ba' Game is a version of mob football played in Scotland, primarily in Orkney.
The Kirkwall Ba' Game (known locally as The Ba') is one of the main annual events held in the town of Kirkwall, in Orkney, Scotland.
It is one of a number of Ba' Games played in the streets of towns around Scotland; these are examples of medieval football games that are still played in towns in the United Kingdom and worldwide. The games are played twice a year, normally on Christmas Day and New Year's Day, unless those days fall on a Sunday in which case the game is moved to the following day.
Played in the town centre of Kirkwall, the two sides are the Uppies and the Doonies, or more correctly, "Up-the-Gates" and "Doon-the-Gates" from Norn gata (path or road), although it is also common in Scots. The tradition belongs to Kirkwall and the surrounding area of St Ola and has always been played by men from those two areas since before records began.

Medieval football
Medieval football is a modern term sometimes used for a wide variety of localised football games which were invented and played in Europe during the Middle Ages. Alternative names include folk football, mob football and Shrovetide football. These games may be regarded as the ancestors of modern codes of football, and by comparison with later forms of football, the medieval matches were chaotic and had few rules.
The Middle Ages saw a huge rise in popularity of games played annually at Shrovetide throughout Europe, particularly in England. The games played in England at this time may have arrived with the Roman occupation but there is little evidence to indicate this. Certainly the Romans played ball games, in particular Harpastum. There is also one reference to ball games being played in southern Britain prior to the Norman Conquest. In the ninth century Nennius's Historia Britonum tells that a group of boys were playing at ball (pilae ludus). The origin of this account is either Southern England or Wales. References to a ball game played in northern France known as La Soure or Choule, in which the ball was propelled by hands, feet, and sticks, date from the 12th century.
