WHAT IS 7v7 FOOTBALL?
7v7 POSITIONS
A quarterback, five receivers and a snapper make up the offense. A team can also have a running back replace one of the receivers in the offensive setup.
It could be different in the different parts of the country in which you play. Sometimes you are allowed five receivers, but sometimes they want a running back. He’s always going to be lined up between the imaginary tackle box and have to run his routes from that point right there.
Teams can have different looks on defense depending on their setup, but always have a combination of linebackers and defensive backs looking to stop their opponent’s passing attack.
How to Play 7-on-7 Football
7v7 RULES
A typical 7v7 football game is split into 20-minute halves with a running clock and a five-minute halftime. The games are played on 40 yards of the field, which leaves room for two games on the same field at the same time.
A competitive 7v7 is different than in the fall when teams are padded up. There are two 15-yard zones where players must get a first down, using only three downs in the first two 15-yard zones.
The quarterback has only four seconds to successfully get a pass off. If by the fourth second that ball is not out of his hand, it is considered a coverage sack and the offense will lose the down at that point.
7v7 POINTS
If the offense scores a touchdown, it earns them six points. Kickers do not score extra points. A team can choose to go for a single point by passing from the 5-yard line or two points passing from the 10-yard line. The defense can score points by either intercepting the ball, or stopping its opponent on downs. If the defense intercepts the ball or stops the offense on downs, the ball will reset for its offense at the 40-yard line.
The team with the lead at the end of the game is the winner.
