The Haverford Fords football team represented Haverford College in college football . The team started in 1879, just the third school in Pennsylvania to field a football team.[1] [2] The team was rivals with Swarthmore .[3] [4] The 1894 game claims to have the first "action shot" photograph of a game.[5] College athletic director James Babbitt was an important figure in the 1905 rules negotiations that brought the forward pass, 10-yard first down and other innovations into the game.[6]
Haverford no longer has a team. The school ended the football program in 1972.[7]
