GIS Flag football is played with 5 players per team (give or take a player depending on class size), there are no kick offs, no quarterback sneaks, interceptions are a turnover and play resumes at the intercepting teams own 8 yard line with the ball and first down, the first down line is the middle of the field, touchdowns are worth six points. Teams design their own playbooks. After a touchdown teams have one down (chance) for extra points. Four steps from the touchdown line for one extra point, eight steps away from the touchdown line for two extra points and 12 steps away from the touchdown line for 3 extra points.
