Field of Play

Answer

The winner of the coin toss will have the choice of possession or direction.
Punts (thrown or kicked) that go out of the end zone will be placed on the 20-yard line.
Punts that are fumbled are dead balls.
The center may snap the ball through his/her legs or stand beside the ball to snap it.
There must be a minimum of three players on the offensive line during each play before the snap.
All players are eligible to receive a pass.
There will be a 30 second play clock once the official spots the ball (places it on the ground).
A player with possession of the ball may NOT leave his/her feet for any reason to advance the ball (diving or hurdling).
The ball may be lateraled at anytime.
If an official blows his/her whistle inadvertently the play is DEAD and the down will be replayed or the team may take the result of the play.
