An item on Aug. 22nd said: The good old English game of football is being revived in Brampton after an absence of 16 yeat's....The game of lootbo.11 itself originated in England in the llth century and was played under differeut rules, each commun- ity having its own special regula- tions. The name "Soccer" now applied to distinguish the game from the American pastime and the game of Rugby, originated around 1863 when a group in London called itself the London Football Association. They proceeded to classify its game as "As- sociation Football" and not merely "football" as had been the case before rugby was played. In time association was abbreviated to "Assoc." then to "Soccer."—Prime factors in the soc- cer movement are Hughie Ward and Norm Miles....Norn1 Miles has his east -end Bantams working out nightly at Rosalea Park and extends an in- vitation to all boys 15 and under liv- ing east of Main St, to conte out and try their hand, or should be say foot, at the old-fashioned game of fitba'. Norm comes well remembered as a coach, having played 1o1• a number of years in Seul'oeth for. the St, Columban Shamrocks, a senior entry in the 'Wes- tern Ontario Football Association. The following item appeared on Sept. 5: After weeks of conditioning and sehoaling, local soccer moguls are ready to turn their charges loose for the first East-West Brampton football classic, IIughie Ward's West- enders estenders have spent each night religt-. curly training at Gummer Paper's field and are now ready for the first sched- uled chedriled game. 011 Saturday at Rosalea Park. Their opposition will be Norm Miles Eastsslde Bautama who have been putting in a ent1ple of hours each night practising at Rosalea.,,.The soccer league is an experiment and originated out of a friendly argument between Norm Miles and Hughie Ward as to who had been the better soccer player in his day. Then the argument turned to who knew the most soccer and who would make the best coach. Finally they challenged each other to get up a team and discussed the possibilities of some equipment with Recreation Director Jack Dane, The three went into a huddle and came up with the bril- liant idea of an East vs, West series. Norm Mites could draw on all the boys living on the east side of Main St. and Hughie Ward could choose his team from the boys living on the west. of Main St. Soccer balls were supplied by the Recreation Associa- tion and the teams conuhencod prac- tising. Upon seeing the plan to revive soccer in Brampton publicized in the local papers, Jack MacDonald and Ed Capps, two former professional assoc- iation football players, offered their assistance to Jack Dane who immed- iately appointed them to an executive position on the Brampton Soccer Lea. gue. Old time soccer fans will remem- ber Ed Capps when he played for Old Countrymen's club, when they rep- resented Brampton in the Toronto and District Soccer League, Ed started his soccer playing with St. Margaret's College in England, then played with Lowestoft Town and once played for the English amateur cup. He turned professional. with Yarmouth and play- ed one season in the pro league before corning to Canada. Among other teams that Ed played with in Canada was the Parkdale Albions when they won the Dominion title. Jack learned his iltba' in Scotland and in 1919 while still a bonnie wee lad turned profes- sional and played centre forward for Queen of South iu the Scottish pro- fessional league. Atter serving two years with this club, he transferred in 1921 to Dundee United in the same league. Before coming to Canada, he also played centre forward for Notts County, In 1926 he played with the ICenora Thistles when they won the Thunder Bay district cup, and from 1929- to 1932 saw service with Mon-: treat. In '32 Tack decided, to retire from the game that had taken him all over the world, and now, 14 years, later, having settled in Brampton he has come out of retirement to take an active part in his sport love, Jack will referee the game on. Saturday at Rosalea. Under the heading "Fasts Down Wests in Soccer,", the following was published on Sept 12th: The Bramp- ton Soccer League officially gotunder way et Rosalea Park last Saturday when Norm Miles' East -side huskies down Htiglrie Ward's eleven by the score of 4 to 1. Both teams played a hard fast game but the combination passing plays of the West leant was nomatch for the faster heavier team after the first 20 minutes of grueling play. Botch sides were evenly matched for the first' period with most of the play taking place in, centre field.. The passing plays and team -Work dis- played by the boys can be attributed to the efforts of their coaches Norm Miles and Hughie Ward who worked everynight for a couple of weeks schooling the boys in the. rudiments of the game Little Bill Plant 14 year ,94 un outside left for theEast. oldpound is de e o spent a busy afternoon taking 'care of his side of the field and turned in a fine effort. George Morenz captain of the. West team was a tower of strength and played a very heady game for the losers. Eddie Rowlands was conceded the best player on the field by the expert onlookers who ex- pect a big future in the soccer world for the boy. Little 10 year old Donny Ward was the smallest and youngest player on the Held. Football is a mat- ter heredity with this lad whose dad is coach of the West team and' was quite a football player in his day. Donny showed plenty of the "old man's" savay in checking the big guys. Jack MacDonald, former Scot- tish pro, refereed the game and 'ex- plained the rules as they went along. He called both teams to 111e centre before the game started and gave the lads a few worth while words on sportsmanship and fair play. "Most of the unfair body checks are handed out by the small fellows who are try- ing to gat even," Jack said. "Use your feet and your head in playing the ball and remember the use of the hip is illegal in playing the man," he added. The youngsters have shown such keen enthusiasm for the game that the committee has decided to organ- ize teams in other age groups. At present there is only the one Bramp- ton group with the age limit set at fifteen years of age. Now that lacrosse is finished enough boys should be available for at least two teams of REG E Pr THEATRE Seaforth Thurs. Fri. & Sat.
