Most schools in England take football seriously—much more seriously than nearly all European schools,

where lessons are all that are important,and games are left for the children themselves.

In England, it is believed that education is more than a matter of filling a boy's mind with facts in the classroom.

Education means the training of character,and one of the best ways of training character is by means of games,

especially team games,where the boy or girl has to learn to work with others,instead of working for himself alone.
