21st century

Origin year places a game in the year its rules were first fixed in writing. Wikipedia notes rugby football's "rules were first put down in written (codified) form in 1845," even though students had already been playing an informal version "since at least the early 1820s." Browsing by origin year separates when a game's rules were formalized from when it was actually first played.
