You have 4 Formations to choose from: Regular, FG, Punt, and Kickoff. You must select a formation the instant that you see the offense or special teams unit coming onto the field. On 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Downs, you should already be in Regular before the Offense gets into formation/breaks the huddle

• Regular - ANY formation that is not FG, Punt, or Kickoff. Do not overthink this. Unlike the football assessment, shotgun and under center are not relevant data points for us

• FG - When the offensive team lines up for a Field Goal. This DOES NOT include Extra Points/PATs. That formation/workflow is triggered automatically after a TD is scored

• Punt - When the offense lines up in a punt formation. This ALSO includes quick kicks/pooch punts from the QB

• Kickoff - When the offense lines up in a Kickoff Formation. You will likely use this once per game for the 2nd half Kickoff. You will most likely need to adjust the yard line manually by editing the Field Map and confirming that the correct team is kicking off. Failing to do either of these things will result in an automatic Major Error

• Just like in scouting, speed is a critical factor for us, particularly when identifying yard lines. As soon as the ball carrier is tackled/pushed out of bounds, you will need to select the yard line he advanced to

• Even if it is wrong, you MUST tap the yard line on the yardage scroller that it looks like he reached, wait for the official spot from the referee, and then confirm or change if necessary

• DO NOT confirm the yard line until the ball is spotted by the official. But it is paramount that we get at least an approximate yard line as soon as possible. You should have a preliminary yard line on most plays

• If the yard line is highlighted in yellow, that does NOT mean preliminary. A yellow box does not send any information; it is a safeguard to prevent accidental taps when scrolling

• The box MUST be highlighted green for it to be recorded. You must tap twice on a yard line, whether it is preliminary OR official
