You are 5'10 and 195 lbs what position should i play in high school football if I'm in 9th grade?

Asked by Wiki User

Personally, I go to a small school, so this could be different for a big school. At our school, if you were 169 lbs. and 5'9", you'd probably be put in at strong safety or cornerback. However, if you mean big, like strong, you could play some Devensive tackle like my freind Erik.

Does an offensive tackle need to be covered by a receiver at the snap of the football?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

No, the tackle does not need to be covered up. As long as there are 7 people on the line of scrimmage, it does not matter where they are at. Only the non-lineman players on the line farthest from the ball are eligible. Anyone not on the line is eligible.

How large is a high school football field?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The size of a high school football field is the same as that of college and the pros.

Since there are 100 yards in a field, we can concede that the length is 100 feet. Also, the end zones are each 10 yards deep, so the total length is 360 feet.

The width of the field is 53 1/3 yards, or 160 feet.

Conclusion:

Length: 120 yards or 360 feet.

Width: 53 1/3 yards or 160 feet.
