In Australia, we have several codes of football, which is pretty unique, because the ball is not round, so it's not really a ball, and you mostly run with your foots rather than kick the ball much with them. All you need for the game is a big old paddock, some long sticks poked into the ground, a control freak in a striped shirt with a whistle, a pair of tight shorts, and a ball that isn't round! Rednuts (that's Aussie for anyone with red hair) seem to be especially good at playing football! |
