"To split the uprights" refers to successfully kicking a field goal in American football by sending the ball between the two goalposts, which are referred to as the uprights. It is a common way to score points in the game.
The two uprights are treated as if they extend upward to infinity. So the height of the ball as it passes over/through the uprights does not matter.
Yes. The uprights mark the width of the scoring area, which extends infinitely upward. In modern NFL football, the uprights have been increased in height, and a rule change for extra-point conversions has reduced the number of these kicks that have to be adjudicated because they pass so high above the goalposts.
u dont get the kick through the uprights or u miss the 2 pt. convert...
The goal post dimensions in Canadian football are the same as in American football. The goal posts are on the goal line. The hash marks are not in line with the uprights.
Goal posts, commonly referred to as "uprights."
hithe uprights are the phosphate & the sugar(ribose or deoxyribose) i think another name for uprights is the backbone.
In American Football, the distance between the uprights is 18.5 feet.
You may not practice on the real uprights but you can practice with a net on the sideline
18 - 19 uprights is the average.
This follows a 'try' and it is when the ball is successfully kicked between the uprights and over the crossbar of the goal. It is equivalent to the 'extra point' in American Football.
A goal is scored once the football has passed over the goal-line, and between the two uprights and crossbar. A goalkeeper is there to try to prevent the ball scoring a goal.
