Badminton was first played in Poona in the 1870s by British soldiers that were stationed in India. They would play in their free time as they would look for things to do with their free time. Soldiers returning from India took the game back to England and soon enough, it caught the attention of the erstwhile Duke of Beaufort. In 1873, the Duke introduced the game to his guests at a lawn-party held at his estate in Gloucestershire.

There were also many variations concerning the size of the ball, the number of players and the length of a match. Another important event in the history of football came about in 1863 in London when the first Football association was formed in England.
