∙ 14y agoIn football lets say the kicker is kicking from the 20 yard line. This would be considered a 30 yard field goal because the endzone is 10 yards long and the goal posts are at the back of the endzone.

∙ 13y agoyou take where the ball is placed, plus usually 7 yards for where the center snaps the ball to the holder and add 10 yards for the length of the touchdown.so if the ball is on the 20 yard line, it would be a 37 yard field goal attempt.

∙ 14y agoyou have to drive the offense down the field. If you don't get a first down and its fourth down, you can kick. I would only kick from 53 yards away at the max. you bring out your kicker, longsnapper, holder, and lineman. The longsnapper snps the ball to the holder, the holder hods it down staight on the ground, and the kicker kicks it.
