A Newsworthy Sport

Soccer had become a very popular sport by the 1920's, earning the attention of newspaper journalists in the area.  One Sudbury Star journalist, known only as "Nomad", would cover the soccer games and would write about soccer in Europe and its development in Ontario and the Sudbury region.  He would include Q & A segments to help readers understand the rules and nuances of the game.  Nomad would often emphasize the need for mental as well as physical training for players and would always write about critical improvements that he felt players could make to help their game.
