Fact #1. The dawn of football came in 1869, when Princeton met Rutgers in the first intercollegiate match. The game looked a little different then. You could only advance the ball by kicking it, and there were 25 players to a side. The important thing was that players were allowed to decimate on another. A national pastime was born.
Fact #2. The sport grew in popularity among northeastern schools. This eventually resulted in a conference in 1875 to codify the rules. However, the changes made by the attendees weren't enough to satisfy a young Yale student named Walter Camp. He suggested limiting the number of players to 11 per side, and established a line of scrimmage. His other big idea was to dictate how many attempts you had to advance the ball a certain length of the field. This became perhaps the most important innovation in American football.
Fact #3. If you want to get your child as hooked by the game as you are, buying them their own football is a good start. Of course, regulation balls are usually too big for young hands. Getting them one that's the right size is a must. If your child is a little to young, finding a softer model should be a priority. You don't want them terrified of getting hit with the thing. Something that can bounce harmlessly off them is a good idea.
Fact #4. Make sure the football can stand up to some abuse. Most younger players aren't very sure-handed. Expect the ball to hit the ground often. You don't want something that will begin to leak or unravel just because it took a few bounces on the concrete.
Fact #5. The most important thing is to pick a football that your child will actually enjoy throwing. You want them to be comfortable with the ball in their hands. That way, they'll never see you coming when you're blitzing off the edge.
