Field Goal

A Field Goal (FG) is a type of scoring done from the field. The football has to be kicked through the posts of the field goal (also called: uprights), which are 10 feet of the ground, and 18½ feet wide.

Attempts
Field Goal attempts are done after a Touchdown. A Field Goal is when the Placekicker has to kick the football through the uprights. If the Field Goal attempt fails, the team will not get the extra points, and will automatically go into the Kickoff play.
