In almost every big university in the United States, football is a favorite sport.
American football is not like soccer. Players sometimes kick the ball, but they also
throw the ball and run with it. They try to take it to the other end of the field. They
have four chances to move the ball ten yards. They can carry it or throw it. If they
move it to the end of the field, they receive six points. This is called a touch—down.
It is difficult to move the ball. Eleven men on the team try to stop the man who has
the ball. If the man does not move the ball ten yards, his team kicks the ball to the
other team.
Each university wants its team to win. Thousands of people come to watch. They all yell for their favorite team. Young men and women called cheerleaders come on
the field to help the people yell more. They dance and jump while they yell.
Each team plays ten or eleven games each season. The season begins in September and ends in November. If a team is very good, it may play another game after the
season ends. The best teams play again on January 1st, the first day of the New Year. Many people go to see these games and many others watch them on television.
