FOOTBALL

Football7DEFINITION OF TERMSLOS: Line of scrimmageYards Rushing: The number of yards gained or lost by running withthe ball.Yards Passing: The number of yards gained or lost by throwing (forthe passer) and/or catching (for the receiver) the ball.First Down: Gaining the necessary number of yards to receive another series of downs.Fumble: Any loss of player possession other than by legal kick, passing or handing.Return Yards: The number of yards gained or lost by running with theball after receiving a kickoff or punt or after intercepting a pass.Total Offense: The amount of yardage gained by rushing and passing,BUT NOT RETURN YARDAGE.All-purpose Yards: Combined net yards gained by rushing, receiving,interception returns, punt returns, kickoff returns and runbacks offield-goal attempts. All-purpose running does not include forwardpassing yardage.Net Yards: The amount of yardage gained or lost after subtracting thelosses from the gains.CD 1: Player A runs with the ball five times. His attempts are: 2,-4, 6, -3 and 1. Total yards gained 9. Total yards lost 7.Net yards 2.CD 2: Player receiving the ball in the same situation as exemplified in CD 1 is recorded in the same manner as CD 1.CD 3: Player passing the ball in the same situation as exemplifiedin CD 1 is recorded in the same manner as CD 1.TD: TouchdownTry (point after touchdown): After a touchdown, the scoring team shallattempt a try during which the ball is snapped from the spot designated by Team A anywhere between the inbounds lines on B’s 3yard line. This involves a scrimmage down which is neither numbered nor timed. No statistics are kept that would normally berecorded on regular plays; only the try attempt and successful try

8Footballare recorded. Exception: Penalty yardage is enforced on the succeeding spot of the ball. The try begins when the ball is ready forplay, and it ends when:a) team B secures possession,b) it is apparent a drop kick or place kick will not score,c) the try is successful,d) the ball becomes dead for any other reason.Kickoff: A free kick which puts the ball in play at the beginning of eachhalf of the game, after a successful field goal and after any try.Punt: A legal kick by a player who drops the ball and kicks it before ithas touched the ground. A punt may be used for a free kick following a safety or for a scrimmage kick.Scrimmage Kick: Any legal kick from in or behind the neutral zone.Tackling: The use of hands, arms or body by a defensive player in anattempt to hold a runner or to bring the player to the ground.Determining the Yard Line and Spotting the Ball: The basic spot isthe previous spot for fouls simultaneous with the snap or free kick,or for fouls during most loose-ball plays (except scrimmage kicks).It is the spot where the kick ends for fouls by the receiving teamthat occur during a scrimmage kick (before the kick ends), and isthe end of the last run for other fouls.NOTE: If any part of the football is touching the vertical planeabove any yard stripe, future action is to be computed from thatyard line. However, if all of the football has been advanced beyondany yard stripe, further action is computed from the first yard linein advance of the football (or nearest the intended goal).Exception 1: When there is a change of possession, it is possiblethat the yard line for one team may not be the same as that ofthe other team.CD: A fourth-down play which does not result in a first downby Team A ending between B’s 3- and 4-yard lines is at the3-yard line for Team A at the end of the drive, but the 4yard line for the team taking over (Team B). When thestakes are moved, the other end of the ball now becomesthe forward point for future measurements.

Football9Exception 2: In certain situations (any down but the first) wherethere is less than 1 yard to gain for a first down, it may be necessary to spot the ball back 1 yard to conform with the principle that there must always be, for statistical purposes, at least1 yard remaining to be gained for a first down (or for a touchdown).CD 1: First down and 10. A player carries the ball to within 6inches of a first down. Credit the player with 9 yardsgained, because the player has not advanced to a firstdown.CD 2: Third down and goal from the 3-yard line. A player carries the ball to within 1 inch of the goal line. Credit theplayer with 2 yards gained to the 1-yard line. The next ballcarrier scores. Credit the latter with a 1-yard gain.CD 3: Team A has the ball with the forward point of the ballplaced on Team B’s 1-yard line. The ball is considered tobe on Team B’s 1-yard line.CD 4: Team A has the ball with the forward point of the ballplaced just short of Team B’s 1-yard line. The ball is considered to be on Team B’s 1-yard line.CD 5: Team A has the ball with the forward point of the ballplaced just short of Team B’s goal line. The ball is considered to be on Team B’s 1-yard line.Exception 3: When, on a first down, the ball rests just outside adefensive team’s 10-yard line, it will be necessary to designatethe scrimmage line as the 11-yard line, as it would be possiblefor the offensive team to advance for a first down without scoring a touchdown.CD 1: Team A’s ball, first down just outside Team B’s 20-yardline. (The designated scrimmage line is the 20.) Player Arushes for sufficient yardage for a first down, just outsideTeam B’s 10-yard line. Credit Player A with a rush of 10yards and Team A with a first down by rushing. Spot the ballon Team B’s 11-yard line.CD 2: The original spot of the ball is to be maintained if theofficial errs in re-spotting the ball after a pl

CD 1: Team A’s ball, first down just outside Team B’s 20-yard line. (The designated scrimmage line is the 20.) Player A rushes for sufficient yardage for a first down, just outside Team B’s 10-yard line. Credit Player A with a rush of 10 yards and Team A with a first down by rushing. Spot the ball on Team B’s 11-yard line.
