Gone are the days when boys were real boys as I look back in nostalgia.

Below were rules of football when we were kids, damn it was fun

1. The fat kid was always the goalkeeper.

2.The owner of the ball decides who plays .

3. If you didn't participate in repairing the ball you were given a match ban.

4. The guy who's never picked was to fetch the ball from the trees or bush when it got stuck, under the car or tunnel to play in the next game.

5. When the owner of the ball got annoyed, game over.

6. When you hit your toes against a stone and you notice blood, you quickly cover the area of injury with sand as a form of first aid and play continues.

7. You can't dribble the owner too much, this may lead him to stop the game by taking away his ball.

8. No matter how many goals you scored, the winner would be determined by the last team to score.

9.No offsides.

10.There is no referee.

11.There is fault only if the fault is serious .

12.The 2 best players can not play in the same team so everyone chooses their players.

13.If you are chosen last it is a humiliation and you will remain in defense.

14.If there is a penalty the goalkeeper is replaced by the best player of the team.

15.The best player on the field is always in the same team as the owner of the ball.

16.There is always a house where if the ball fell there, we knew that the game was over. so be careful !!

17. To distinguish the teams, one of the teams take off their shirts .

18.Game over when its dark and we can barley see the ball, we all disperse in groups teasing one another until we get home to face another punishment from our parents.

Africa is our home. Childhood was fun.

Halo22:
Number 5 reminded of a boy called Ifechukwu, once he vex, forget it he would be going with his ball. Then number 16 reminded me of a man called Egede, if u kicked the ball into his compound, game would be over cos he would seize the ball. Those years were totally fun.

opius:
3 corner makes a penalty

God bless you op for this. Unwritten rules that must not be joke with.

phemmyfour:
19. In a monkey post, if the ball is higher than the stone used for goal post, it's over the bar

20. Guessing the position of the "vab" (valve) correctly settles the argument about the first two teams to start the match

Ilekokonit:
There is always one house that has a very wild and aggressive dog that is always snarling his teeth at every passer by and if you accidentally kick your ball into that gated compound, then its game over as no one will risk trying to retrieve the ball and get bitten by the wild eyed dog which is always lurking under a car waiting to pounce on his next unsuspecting victim.
