Member clubs of the League may amend the rules from time to time, pursuant to the applicable voting procedures of the NFL Constitution and Bylaws. Any intra-League dispute or call for interpretation in connection with these rules will be decided by the Commissioner of the League, whose ruling will be final. Because interconference games are played throughout the preseason, regular season, and postseason in the NFL, all rules contained in this book apply uniformly to both the American and National Football Conferences. At many places in the text there are approved rulings which serve to supple- ment and illustrate the basic language of the rules. Each is headed by an abbreviation, followed by a number (e.g. “A .R. 32.0”). The letter “A” in an approved ruling indicates the team that puts the ball in play, and its opponents are designated by the letter “B.” Whenever a team is in possession of the ball, it is the offense, and at such time its opponent is the defense. Yard lines and players are indicated by numerals. Thus, for example: “A.R. 50.1 Third-and-10 on A30. During a run prior to an intended pass by quarterback A1, defensive player B1 holds flanker A2 on the A45…” Where the word “illegal” appears in this rule book, it is an institutional term of art pertaining strictly to actions that violate NFL playing rules. It is not meant to connote illegality under any public law or the rules or regulations of any other organization. The word “flagrant,” when used here to describe an action by a player, is meant to indicate the degree of a violation of the rules—usually a personal foul or unnecessary roughness—is extremely objectionable and conspicuous. “Flagrant” in these rules does not necessarily imply malice on the part of the fouling player or an intention to injure an opponent.

This USA Football Rules Guide is designed to take existing, commonly used rule books by the National Federation of State High School Associations (NFHS) and the NCAA and adapt them to the youth game. In most states, the NFHS rule book serves as the foundational rules system for the youth game. Some states, however, use the NCAA rule book for high school football and youth leagues. 2 2 / YOUTH-SPECIFIC RULES USA Football recommends the following rules be adopted by youth football leagues, replacing the current rules within the NFHS and NCAA books. Feel free to print this chart and provide it to your officials to take to the game field.

  • SCYF Football
    Football 101 SCYF: Football is a full contact sport. We will help teach your child how to play the game of football. Football is a team sport. It takes 11 teammates working together to be successful. One mistake can ruin a perfect play. Because of this, we and every other football team practices fundamentals (how to do it) and running plays (what to do). A mistake learned from, is just another lesson in winning. The field • The playing field is 100 yards long. • It has stripes running across the field at five-yard intervals. • There are shorter lines, called hash marks, marking each one-yard interval. (not shown) • On each end of the playing field is an end zone (red section with diagonal lines) which extends ten yards. • The total field is 120 yards long and 160 feet wide. • Located on the very back line of each end zone is a goal post. • The spot where the end zone meets the playing field is called the goal line. • The spot where the end zone meets the out of bounds area is the end line. • The yardage from the goal line is marked at ten-yard intervals, up to the 50-yard line, which is in the center of the field. The Objective of the Game The object of the game is to outscore your opponent by advancing the football into their end zone for as many touchdowns as possible while holding them to as few as possible. There are other ways of scoring, but a touchdown is usually the prime objective.

Member clubs of the League may amend the rules from time to time, pursuant to the applicable voting procedures of the NFL Constitution and Bylaws. Any intra-League dispute or call for interpretation in connection with these rules will be decided by the Commissioner of the League, whose ruling will be final. Because interconference games are played throughout the preseason, regular season, and postseason in the NFL, all rules contained in this book apply uniformly to both the American and National Football Conferences.

The letter “A” in an approved ruling indicates the team that puts the ball in play, and its opponents are designated by the letter “B.” Whenever a team is in possession of the ball, it is the offense, and at such time its opponent is the defense.

  • Die Spielerpositionen Beim American Football
    Die Spielerpositionen beim American Football Jeweils elf Spieler gehören zu einer Offense und Defense im American Football. Da kann man leicht einmal den Überblick verlieren, welche Aufgaben die einzelnen Positionen überhaupt erfüllen müssen. OFFENSE Quarterback (QB): Der Spielmacher des Angriffs, der bei jedem Spielzug den Ball entweder zu seinen Wide Receivern (WR) werfen oder zu seinem Running Back (RB) übergeben kann. Der Quarterback kann wie der Running Back auch selbst laufen. Wide Receiver (WR): In der Regel die schnellsten Spielern auf dem Feld. Sie müssen die Pässe des Quarterbacks fangen, um im Anschluss daran möglichst weit in Richtung Endzone zu sprinten. Running Back (RB): Der Ballträger, der sich nach der Ball-Übergabe durch den Quarterback den Weg durch die Verteidigung bahnt, um in die Endzone zu kommen. Running Backs können (ähnlich wie Wide Receiver) auch Bälle fangen und so in die Endzone laufen. Fullback (FB): Einer der Ballträger, der selten dem Ball bekommt, sondern dem Running Back den Weg durch die Verteidigung freiräumt. Tight End (TE): Eine sogenannte Hybrid-Position mit unterschiedlichsten Aufgaben. Kann sowohl Bälle wie ein Wide Receiver fangen, als auch große Verteidiger an der Line of Scrimmage (LOS) blocken. Offensive Line (OL; Guard und Tackle): Spieler der Angriffslinie, die entweder den Verteidiger aufhalten müssen, um dem Quarterback Zeit zu verschaffen oder dem Ballträger beim Laufspiel Lücken freiblocken. Center (C): Der mittlere Spieler in der Angriffslinie, der bei jedem Spielzug den Ball zwischen seinen Beinen hindurch zum Quarterback ins Spiel bringt (Snap). Er hat ansonsten die gleichen Aufgaben wie der Rest der OL. DEFENSE Defensive Tackle (DT; gehört zur Defensive Line): Die inneren Spieler der Verteidigungslinie, die sowohl den Quarterback im Passspiel unter Druck setzen oder zu Fall bringen, als auch den gegnerischen Ballträger beim Laufspiel stoppen.
