Quoted from gang green nation:
"It is widely assumed that the word "football" (or "foot ball") references the action of the foot kicking a ball. There is an alternative explanation, which is that football originally referred to a variety of games in Medieval Europe, which were played on foot. There is no conclusive evidence for either explanation."
Nothing to do with length. A ball is a sphere, not oval, HANDOVAL!!

This is stated by "gang green nation"
"It is widely assumed that the word "football" (or "foot ball") references the action of the foot kicking a ball. There is an alternative explanation, which is that football originally referred to a variety of games in Medieval Europe, which were played on foot.

So nothing to do with the length, but STILL, for a sport derived by sports that involved kicking and feet action, handovals are handled by hands more than feet

Now you're thinking right! There's more feet action in soccer than hands action!

Only on very short occasions and happen at least a couple times per game. It's handled by more hands than feet, so handoval!

Exactly! For a ball that has any relation with a foot on a short and small occasion that only happens a couple times a game at least, it sure is handled by hands more. I think it should be called the handoval, cause it's oval shaped and spheres aren't oblong
