How To Play Game Of American Football.

First, we'll start off with Rule.

Here is a basic rundown of how a football game works.

Scoring is done by the team on offense. Their objective is to get the ball to the end zone of their opponent. This is done by either running or passing the ball down the field.

The team on offense has four downs to move the ball 10 yards forward. A down is basically an attempt to move the ball forward. If a team fails to advance 10 yards after four downs, the ball is turned over to the opposing team. (Note that the CFL only uses three downs.)

On the fourth down, a team has the option to either attempt a field goal or a punt. A field goal is usually attempted within 40 yards.

A game is divided into four quarters that last 15 minutes each. There is a halftime break between the second and third quarter.

A game usually begins with a coin flip between the team captains. Whoever wins the coin flip chooses to either kick off or receive the opening kickoff. The other team is given the same choice at the start of the second half.

      Football games are divided up into two halves or four quarters. The clock doesn't run all of the time. It gets stopped for timeouts and between certain plays. In high school, each quarter is 12 minutes long, but for College & NFL, each quarter is 15 minutes.

The Field goal is centered in the end, which is the yellow thing.
