Offside Fun Facts

The first known laws of football, dating back to 1863, didn't include the offside rule as we know it today; initially, any player ahead of the ball was deemed offside, massively influencing how the game was played.
In ice hockey, the offside rule doesn't just regulate player positions relative to the puck but also involves a physical line on the ice, adding a unique visual element to the sport's offside enforcement.
