I'm assuming you mean AMERICAN football, not soccer. Official rules: you must have 11 players on each side of the ball for every play. But the way the game is played on an organized level, a team has 11 offensive players and 11 defensive players, plus a kicker, a punter, a kickholder, kick returner, several other "special teams" players, and 1-3 backups for every position. I'm not sure but I think the official maximum roster size for an NFL team is 88. In the past, teams had to keep the same 11 guys out there whether they were on offense, defense, or special teams. That is now called "Iron Man" football because any team attempting to do that today, when the rules allow unlimited substitution, must have players with a great deal of endurance. Or, if you're like my home town's high school football team, you HAVE to play that way because the entire male student body is BARELY big enough to put 11 players on the field, so they ALL have to play both sides of the ball. They started that team about 20 years ago (shortly after I graduated). To my knowledge, they still have not won a game. It took them ten years to score their first points. The Canadian League and Arena football are different. Don't know about the European league of American Football. Playground rules: 4. 2 on each team. That's the bare minimum.
There is usually no set number of players on a team. But, only 11 from each team on the field at the same time.

∙ 15y agoThe number of players it takes to play a soccer match depends on how many players you have to start with. However, for teams playing a normal 11 v. 11 game, there can be no more than 11 players on the field, and no less than 7 players. Sometimes, checking with the other coach is important to see if an agreement can be made about players. Keep in mind though, one player must always be designated as "goalie".

∙ 14y agoAmerican football teams have 11 players on the field on each side on any given play. The actual size of the teams depends on the level of play. NFL teams are usually limited to 53 players (45 active), while in college the roster limits are determined by each conference, and have been listed as low as 80 players, and as high as "unlimited" for home games.

How many are there in soccer?
There are normally 11 players on a team at the beginning of a match. But there are exceptions. Let's jump around a bit and perhaps learn some things. The Laws of the Game permit a team to enter a match with a minimum of 7 players. If this team cannot produce more players, it can still begin the match. So 7, 8, 9, or 10 players can begin a game. (The other team doesn't have to play "at reduced strength" just because the first team is short of players.) If a team in a match has one of its players sent off (red carded), it must now "play short" and make do with 10 players. Another send-off will reduce that teams numbers yet again. Should the team be at 7 (either from the start of the match or from "attrition" due to red cards, another red card will mandate the termination of the match. (The team that has fewer than 7 players forfeits the match.) There are other "kinds" of soccer (beach soccer, indoor soccer and such) where the teams begin with 5 or 7 or however many players the governing body sponsoring the match designates. Also, short-sided games can be played in competitions where 5 vs. 5 or 7 vs. 7 or another "set" number of players takes to the field. (And the size of the fields is reduced, either a little or a lot.) The objectives and ideas of the sponsors and the cooperation of the players and teams is blended so that "the essence of the game" can be played in a modified format to fit location, players (their age and/or abilities), or anything else. (Imagine a full-sized soccer field laid out on a sandy beach and two teams of 11 going at it. Probably not cool. Different, but probably not cool.) Some "careful" and "respectful" modifications to the game are made all the time. It's about the players and the spirit of the game. How can a sponsoring organization serve them both? Modifications are permitted for this purpose.

What contribution did soccer players make that made soccer part of history?
I've been playing for six years. (and still counting!) Soccer players have just been known to be really into the game. Unlike football, baseball, hockey, etc, players, soccer players have a passion for their game and want to play it almost everyday! My opinion is that soccer is the best sport anyone could ask for! All you really need to start the game is a couple of girls/guys, a ball, and anything, anything, to use for the goals. If you play soccer, I hope you agree!! WOO - HOO! GO Manchester United! (EPL)
