Systems and methods for playing a new enhanced version of the sport of Football (e.g., Gridiron football, American football, Canadian football, Rugby Union, Rugby League, Soccer or similar sports). In an embodiment, this disclosed version of the sport is played between two teams (offense and defense) with 15 players on each side on the field at a point in time, with a total of three balls, with varying weightages and importance. Each ball results in a different score when touched down or with a field goal. Even the overall distance gained or lost will be magnified or reduced based on the weightages assigned to each ball. The offense has four downs to advance the line of scrimmage by 10 yards and if they fail to do so, they lose possession to the defense team, who then have four downs to advance 10 yards. With three balls in the game, after every down a weighted average formula is used to compute the location of the new line of scrimmage and also there are specific guidelines to determine the possession for the next down. This version of the sport delivers enhanced entertainment and excitement for viewers and audience, while enables the application of much higher levels of strategy, thinking and planning into the game and every down. |
