Its one of the four chances that a team gets to move the ball. Theres 1st down and 10 yards. If they get positive yardage on that play, say 6 yards, its now 2nd and 4. If they get 3 yards on second down, its now 3rd and 1. Now they need 1 yard for a fresh set of downs (A whole new set of four). A First Down is whenever a team gets enough yards to pass the yardmarker (usually 10, unless there is a penalty or a negative play).
