Off-side rule, when the balls passed by the attacking team and there's no defender other than the goalie between the person (member of the attacking team) recieving it and the goal. It though is not off side if when the ball was passed they were level with a member of the defending team (excluding the goalie) and they manage to out run them to get the ball.
Also before you say it I know this 'rule' gets tweaked but this is the basic explination, well the one I beat out of my brother when we were kids, been leaving men lost of words ever since.

Your cousins child is your cousin once removed, the removed bit describes how many generations apart you are so your cousins childs, child is your cousin twice removed.

I like to use this or a similar chart to help me figure out how I am related to someone;

Hi Everyone

I've researched my own family and got to the stage than I'm limited to trace back further backwards. And I've collected unrelated stuff along the way and as I'm a Hon. Member of the Cheslyn Hay & District Local History Society I am doing a Local study of The People of the Local area and Its very interesting to see the best part of a Village interconnect together and I've traced the Lines backwards to see where the different families come from as far as possible for the Benefit of the Member's of the Society Also It helps me to answer many of the queries The Society gets as I'm one of there Researchers. The Tree Is like a Forest and you couldn't write the tree at Genesreunited without creating Dupilate Individuals as there Isn't a link to a Existing Individual Tool. which I ware out using Legacy Family Tree Software.

To Me its a Pastime and is a Personnel Choice whether one Traces non Blood Lines but Its Said we all Relate to each other as one of the comments as we live on a Island and we mingle.

In the beginning, mine was like that.

My ancestors came from the Isle of Sheppey - looking at census it was interesting to see how they lived next door to the extended family. If I hadn't bothered to research in all directions, they would just appear to be isolated individuals :-)
