One rule for football is that you are not allowed to hold anyone when you tackle them.

____

The basic rules:

Each team has to get the ball into the opposing end zone to score.

You have 4 tries to get 10 yards, and if you can't, then you turn the ball over to the other team. If you can, then you get another 4 tries to go 10 more yards, and so on until you get to the end zone to score.

There are two basic ways to score... run in or catch the ball in the end zone, or kick it through the goal posts in the end zone.

... obviously the game is much more complex, and there are additional ways to score and rules about how you can try to stop your opponents from getting 10 yards. For more information on football rules (American football), please see the related link below to the National Football League's Rulebook page, which has both basic and more complex information.

Football has many rules such as:

  • you have to hike the ball in a certain amount of time after the ref blows the first whistle or it's a delay of game
  • one you put your hand on the ground when your on offense and the quarterback says down you cant move on the offense or it's a false start
  • when you're on defense or offense you can not be in front of the ball when it is snapped or it will be an off sides call on the defense or the offense
  • when you're on defense or offense you can not grab another player by the face-mask or it is a face-mask call on the defense or the offense
  • when the quarterback is throwing the ball and the ball is about to hit the receiver in the hands and you hit the receiver before it hits his/her hands then it's a pass interference call
  • when the quarterback has already handed the ball or thrown the ball you can not hit the quarterback unless you are one step away otherwise it will be a late hit call, same goes for when the play is over and you hit another player
  • when you are on defense you can not hit the offensive lineman when the ball has not been snapped yet or it will be an encroachment call on the defense

There are more rules to football than this but these are just a few.
