If the Offense runs a play on 4
th
down and
is unable to make a first down, the Defense
takes possession of the ball at the last ball
location.
The Offense may also choose to Punt or
attempt a Field Goal on 4
th
down, if they
do not think they will be able to make a
first down on the next play.

The Offense may choose to attempt a punt
when the player does not think they will
make a first down on the next play. A punt
may be kicked on any down, but is almost
always kicked on 4
th
down.

It is possible to score a touchdown on a
Punt return. If the yardage on the punt
return moves the past the goal line, it is a
touchdown. The closer the kicking team is to
their own end zone, the more likely this is to
happen.
If the defense fails to select “Punt” on the
Special Teams dial, the play proceeds as
normal and a return is made as normal.

When the offensive play moves the ball
position past the goal line, the result is a
touchdown.
Regardless of the length of the offensive play,
if the ball position moves past the goal line,
the result is a touchdown.
Example:
1
st
and Goal from the 2-yard line.
Long Pass
• Result: Touchdown.
• TDs are worth 6 points.
• Extra point OR 2-point conversion is
attempted following a touchdown.

To attempt an extra point, the Offense and
Defense should set the Special Teams dials to
Field Goal. An extra point is basically a very
short field goal, and will be successful about
98% of the time.
Extra point attempts are followed
immediately by a Kickoff.

To attempt a 2-point conversion, the scoring
team must turn the Special Teams dial to the
OFF position. The offense will run a play from
the 2-yard line.
Note: Yardage is hard to come by this close
to the end zone, so you’ll need a good play
and good execution to be successful. Plays
that might gain more than 2 yards in a normal
offensive situation may not be successful
when attempting a 2-point conversion.
2-point conversion attempts are followed
immediately by a Kickoff.

The Offense may attempt a Field Goal on any
down, when the team is in field-goal range.
Field Goals longer than 65 yards may not be
attempted. This means that the offense may
not attempt a Field Goal from beyond its own
48-yard line (this is because of the 10-yard
end zone and a 7-yard snap).
Offense must set the Special Teams dial to
“Field Goal”. Blocking schemes do
not affect Field Goal attempts.
