HOW MANY LEGS DOES IT TAKE TO SCORE A TOUCHDOWN?
The sport of football is the ultimate team game. A great coach once stated that it takes 22 legs to score a touchdown, because it takes all 11 players on the field doing their job for the one player with the football to cross the goal line and score the touchdown.
HOW LONG IS A YOUTH FOOTBALL GAME?
Youth Football games vary in length depending on the rules of your league. Many flag football leagues will have two (2) halves each consisting of 25 minutes in length, so that game would be 50 minutes. Youth Tackle football typically will run four (4) quarters of which they may vary from 8 minute, 10 minute or 12 minute quarters depending on age and skill level.
