History

Yale's first attempts with "kicking games" have roots in the 1860s, when the University, along with Princeton (then known as the College of Ottawa), Rutgers, and Brown, started to play a form of football that resembled the Association game.[http://www.profootballresearchers.com/articles/No_Christian_End.pdf No Christian End! The Beginnings of Football in America] By PFRA Research (Originally Published in The Journey to Camp: The Origins of American Football to 1889 (PFRA Books)

Nevertheless, after a rugby football game played v Harvard in 1875, Yale dropped the association football in favor of rugby. That would be official in 1876 when Yale and other universities met at the Massasoit Convention in Springfield, Massachusetts, agreed to adopt most of the Rugby Football Union rules, with some variations,[https://web.archive.org/web/20100929152206/http://profootballresearchers.org/Articles/Camp_And_Followers.pdf Camp and His Followers: American Football 1876–1889] By PFRA Research (archived)[https://www.academia.edu/34307566/THE_BOSTON_GAME THE BOSTON GAME] article by Michael T. Geary at academia.edu

Rivalries

Yale athletics have a longstanding rivalry with Harvard across all sports since 1875 when they first met in a rugby-style game,{{cite web|last1=Christenfeld|first1=Sam O.
