American football is played by two teams. Each team tries to score
points by getting the ball over the other team’s goal line, into the end zone.
A team can score a touchdown by passing or throwing the ball to a teammate in
the end zone or by running with the ball into the end zone. A team can also
score a field goal by kicking the ball over a goal post in the end zone. A
touchdown earns six points and a field goal earns three points.
Only one team has the ball at a time. That team is called the offense.
The other team, called the defence, tries to stop the offence from scoring any
points. Both the offence and defense have 11 players on the field.
The offense tries to move down the football field by throwing passes or
by rushing or running with the ball. It has four chances or downs to move the
ball 10 yards. If it succeeds, the offense keeps the ball for another four
downs. If it doesn’t, the other team’s offense gets its turn.
The defense tries to stop the offense mainly by tackling the player with
the ball. The defense can also try to get hold of the ball by making the
offense fumble the football or by intercepting a pass.
Officials make sure the rules are followed and the game is fairly
played. They hand out penalties if rules are broken. A penalty on the offense
moves the ball farther away from the defense’s goal line. A penalty on the
defense moves it closer to their goal line.

earns three points, and a field goal earns six points.
