American Football is a team sport primarily played in the United States, characterized by two teams of eleven players each competing on a rectangular field. The objective of the game is to score points by advancing the ball into the opponent’s end zone, primarily through running with the ball or passing it to teammates. Points can be scored in several ways: a touchdown (6 points), a field goal (3 points), a safety (2 points), or an extra point (1 or 2 points) following a touchdown.
The game is divided into four quarters, and teams have a fixed number of attempts, or “downs,” to advance the ball ten yards. The sport utilizes specialized positions, including quarterbacks, running backs, wide receivers, linemen, and defenders, each with distinct roles and responsibilities. American Football also involves various strategies, formations, and plays that teams use to outmaneuver their opponents. The game has a significant cultural impact in the United States, with professional leagues, such as the NFL, and college football systems attracting large audiences and fan engagement. It is known for its physical intensity, tactical gameplay, and celebratory events like the Super Bowl, which is one of the most-watched sporting events globally.
