History
Roko was founded in 2010 by a group of friends who wanted to create a more relaxed and fun alternative to traditional football leagues. The league started with just a few teams, but it has grown steadily over the years.
In 2015, Roko expanded to include a women's division. This was a major step for the league and helped to increase its diversity.
Roko has continued to grow and develop in recent years. In 2020, the league introduced a new youth division for players under the age of 18. This was a popular move and has helped to attract new players to the league.
Rules
Roko follows the standard rules of football. However, there are a few modifications to the rules to make the game more accessible to players of all abilities.
For example, there is no offside rule in Roko. This means that players are free to move into any position on the pitch.
There is also a shorter game duration in Roko. Matches last for 60 minutes, rather than the traditional 90 minutes.
These modifications make Roko a more enjoyable and less daunting experience for players of all abilities.
