All players must begin on their endzone for the throw-off. If the ball goes into the endzone, bring the ball 3 steps out of the endzone. There is no rushing on throw-offs.
Teams have four downs to get past the midfield cones.
When teams pass the midfield cone, the team gets a first down and then have four downs to cross the endline for a touchdown. The quarterback cannot run the ball until after it has been handed off or passes to another player. If the quarterback crosses the line of scrimmage , the ball is dead and goes back to the line of scrimmage. Placement of the ball on the ground denotes the line of scrimmage. The ball may be passed any number of times, any direction.
