Amazingly enough, most of those habits started kicking in while we were still young and innocent. When status or money didn't determine who could attend but, all that mattered was having a ball, a net 2 poles 2 rocks and pride in the injuries that came with the game.
We were just a crazy bunch, nearly addicted to the game. Below are some of the variations we had of the beautiful game that is soccer.
GAME 1 - "STREET" FOOTBALL:
Location:
- Streets or School.
RULES:
The rules of the game are simple:
Don't expect fouls to be signaled(unless extreme)
The game ends when the ball owner says so. Pray he's not a sore loser.
Once appointed as goalie then goalie you probably always will be. For a slim chance to play in a different position, bribe the captain/ball owner or the top player with some food or something to drink. I'd recommend the finest candy around.
Ball owner can add new rules at anytime and can decide whether an existing rule is to be acknowledged or not.
REWARDS:
- Fun.
- Alliances are made.
- On the field, stories to tell future generations are born and
exaggerated.
GAME 2: COBO(COBOKOF)
LOCATION:
- School or Streets. Why we mostly played this one at school still baffles me. Smh
RULES:
There are a bit more rules for this one but they are easier and faster to understand:
Don't let the ball pass between your legs.
If the ball passes between your legs all participants can punch you in the back until you're able to touch the designated tree/post.
The intensity of the punches depends on the puncher's mood.
Basically if the ball passes between your legs you're f**cked. Train your acceleration for when such scenario is put into motion.
If ball has passed between your legs and you assumed you could hide amongst students who are not playing, then I'm afraid you already got snitched on and whomever seating next to you has probably been polishing his punching skills.
So you were able to avoid the mob hit until recess was over and you had to go back to class? Don't worry, sooner or later you must come out and they'll be waiting for you!
Cheer up, soon you get to exact your revenge on another schoolmate.
REWARDS:
- Unnecessary extra scars and bruises.
- Detention if caught.
- Temporary loss of friends.
GAME 3: SINABYAYE:
LOCATION:
- Unknown
RULES:
Sinabyaye directly translates to "I haven't birthed", let's call it "I have no kids." Please make your own deductions from that.
REWARDS:
- Street cred.
CONCLUSION:
This is my entry for 
Stay blessed everybody!!
