| According to a survey conducted by FIFA, published in the spring of 2001, over 240 million people regularly play football in more than 200 countries in every part of the world. Its simple rules and minimal equipment (hence the term 'Jumpers for goalposts') requirements have no doubt aided its spread and growth in popularity. For example, the game need not be played with the eleven players required by professional football i.e Five a side football, and it can be played on smaller fields. |
