KIDS TRIVIA

Detailed explanation-1: -If an eligible receiver was nearby, the flag can be picked up. If the referee does not throw his flag and is told the ball went into an area not occupied by an eligible offensive receiver, it is acceptable to throw a late flag.

Detailed explanation-2: -Only direct handoffs are permitted-there are no laterals or pitches anywhere on the field. The quarterback has seven-second pass clock to get rid of the ball. The quarterback can’t run with the ball unless it was handed off first. Offensive players must steer clear of the rusher and may not get in his/her way.

Detailed explanation-3: -The receiving team may not attempt to block the kick, even from their side of the line. If this is attempted, the kicking team may elect to re-kick. The kicked ball may be caught and returned; however, if the ball touches the ground before being caught by the receiving team, it becomes dead and is marked at that spot.

Detailed explanation-4: -A defensive player may not hold, push, or knock down the ball carrier in an attempt to remove the flag, nor shall an offensive player hold, block, or run through a defensive player trying to remove the flag belt.
