This educational video is about American football. American football is a high-contact, strategic team sport played with an oval-shaped ball on a 100-yard field. Two teams of 11 players compete to score points by advancing the ball into the opponent's end zone (touchdown) or kicking it through goalposts. It is characterized by alternating possessions, intense physical tackling, and, in the US, is the premier spectator sport. #educationalvideos #educationalvideosforchildren #educationalvideosforkids #sports #sportsvideo #sportsvideoforchildren
