Football Field Template
Football Field Template: What Is It?
A Football Field Template is used to determine the size of a football field as well as the general layout. There are specific standards for the length and width of a football field when looking at the size and these dimensions are not accidental.
Alternate Names:
- Football Field Diagram;
- Football Field Outline.
By keeping to these dimensions you ensure that the football match is played well and most importantly, safely. It is important to keep these dimensions the same across a tournament and of course if you are taking part in a smaller tournament or as part of a school club, you are unlikely to find such dimensions to play your matches which is where a blank Football Field template could come in useful. By keeping equal conditions for all taking part, you ensure that the tournament runs smoothly and fairly. Everything from the team boxes to the end zones are clearly labeled on the template.

How to Make a Football Field Template?
A Football Field template may also differ depending on the number of players in a team taking part in the tournament. The formats could include eleven, nine, eight, or six players and this could also be reflected in the template.
Making a Football Field Template requires some careful consideration in order to not miss any important structures. If you have decided to make your own Football Field Template, please take onboard some of the tips and hints that we have collected to make sure that you produce the finest template possible:
- Firstly, you need to determine the exact sizes of your field. Although there are specific dimensions in place that concern the size of the field, understandably not all fields fall within this range;
- Once you know your measurements, you should draw the outline of the field shape;
- Include both end zones at the end of each half of the field;
- On the left and right sides of the field, clearly mark and label where the bench for each team will be along with the area for coaches;
- Mark the location of the 3-yard lines and other numbering details. Make sure you take into account all standard lines and markings, clearly labeling where each 10 yard increment is;
- Now that you have an exact outline of the layout of your field, you should include the specific measurements that you determined at the very start. Label each section of the field with the appropriate measurements;
- Spruce up your template by adding a bit of color. You cannot go wrong with a subtle green that will reflect the color of the grass;
- Additionally, you can modify the template in any way you see fit. You may add specific images or perhaps team logos. However, try to avoid going for too much because the template itself is already packed full of information and labels. You want to avoid confusion.
