Place the football at the offensive teams 5yard line to start the play

This is unlike contact football, where the game begins with a kickoff. If your playing field isnt marked with yard lines, place the ball a few steps in front of the goal.Each team has 3 plays to cross the midfield. If the team is successful, it has 3 more tries to score a touchdown. If the team cannot cross midfield, the opposing team takes possession of the football on its own 5yard line. All possession changes, except for interceptions, start on the teams own 5yard line.
