So I have to ask. 50 yards...do you kick to just one end zone? Or do you have a second goal post?

No I am being serious here and not trying to joke. I am looking at a regulation field being 100 yards. If you are doing indoor dimensions outdoors that would need to be spec'd different than a regulation field. I'm just trying to figure out what it's going to take for me to start my own team up here

I've been curious about it too - the goal post thing.

a lot of smaller high schools have portable goal posts.
Some larger high schools have portable goal posts on their practice fields. The Lincoln High freshman field as goal posts on wheels that can be moved. They can be a pain sometimes, but they are very do able.
Of course, they could always run down the field to kick if they score on the other end...that would make sense if portable goal posts aren't available.

My bad Hawk! Thought you were poking fun at us. What we use are portable goal posts on each end. We put t-posts in the ground and slide the goalposts over the posts. It makes for great stability on your goalposts and doesn't destroy the field. That's the good thing about our league. You can create a field virtually anywhere you want, so you can lower your costs.

When I was HC of an 8 man high school team we played on 80 yard fields.
Actually, we played at the college and they had some sort of line that staked into the grass that was used as a temporary side line. We only kicked at one end zone.

They play indoor rules outdoors. It's not 8 man football like high school.

I spoke out of turn and stand corrected! Guess that's what I get for assuming.
