History of soccer in the United States
Pasuckuakohowog, "they gather to play ball with the foot", was played in the 17th century on beaches, with goals about a half-mile-wide and one mile apart. Up to 500 people played; many games had up to 1,000 players. Pasuckuakohowog was a dangerous game and was played almost like a war. Players would often have to quit due broken bones or other serious injuries. Pasuckuakohowog players wore ornaments and war paint to disguise themselves from retaliation after the game. The game would often last for hours and sometimes carry over to the next day. After each match there would be a large celebratory feast, including both teams.
