1. Football History
American football comes from rugby football. The first major football game was won by Rutgers University (score - 6) against Princeton University (score - 4). Their war was in 1869 -- four years after the Civil War.
Coloring football boy, the main idea of football is still the same. Football fans still yell, "Run that football!", "Throw it!", "Kick it!", and "Score man, score!"
2. Football Fundamentals
Coloring kid, you must get the ball into your opponent's end zone. Get yourself an egg-shaped, air-filled leather ball to throw, catch or kick. Follow the rules and regulations. No running "any-which-a-way" with the football, man!
Only two teams can square off. Your team and the other guy's team must have eleven players on the field at one time. Smaller football leagues use fewer than eleven guys.
The teams take turns playing offensive (trash talking is allowed), then playing defensive (cry baby guys are not allowed).
The offensive team possesses the ball until they score, or fail to gain 10 yards in four tries, or loses the ball to the defensive team.
The defensive team tries to stop the offense from gaining yardage or scoring. The defense tries to steal the ball, too.
3. Organized Football Structure
Do you love knocking people down, kid? Is screaming in a big guy's face your dream come true? Is slamming a little guy into planet Earth your idea of fun? Well, Coloring football kid, tackle football is for you...
NO! Football coloring Kid, no scratching or spitting! "Eye-gouging and kicking?" NO! "Choke holds and pistol whipping?!" NO! Don't get greedy, kid...
Here is a little lowdown info to help understand organized football structure:
Teams may change their players as long as 11 guys are on the field. Scrimmage is the action once the ball is snapped (quickly given) to the Quarterback by his Center until the ball is dead. Line of Scrimmage is an invisible field line where teams face each other. Now get this...
Both teams can have three specialized teams where players have one or more roles.
Here are a few roles...
I. The Specialized Offense Team must score or gain yardage to win. The Quarterback leader gets the ball from his Center man -- his second brain. The QB throws the ball to a Receiver, or hands it to a Running Back or runs the ball himself (gutsy!). The Offense Line is five Mack trucks. They power protect the Passer, block, and leave tread marks on defense players' backs. Running Backs have roles in running the ball, catching, blocking plus wrecking havoc on yardage. Wide Receivers catch zooming balls from the เว็บแทงบอลน้ำดี Quarterback. These guys have "superhero" speed plus they block, too. Tight Ends have two roles. They can perform as Wide Receivers or as Offensive Linemen who protect Quarterbacks and block for Runners. II. The Specialized Defense Team must stop opponents from scoring or gaining yardage. The Defensive Line has 3 to 6 "massive giants" blocking the sun and creating darkness and pain along the line of scrimmage. Linemen ("monster trucks") roll over running backs. They crash test "sack" the quarterback before he passes or hands off the ball. Linebackers cause nightmares. They lurk behind the Defensive Linemen plus rush the quarterback or cover receivers. Defensive Backs with superhero speed cover receivers and stop zooming passes plus rush quarterbacks! III. The Specialized Special Team must score extra points. Got a funky leg and foot, kid? Become a punter or place kicker to get those game saving extra points. Long snappers need pinpoint skills, too.4. Players' Skills Levels.
