Number of balls for an NFL game

edit

"In an NFL game, the home club must have 36 balls for an outdoor game or 24 for an indoor game". Why the difference ? Does this go back to the days when a ball could be kicked right out of the stadium ? Also, the 12 new balls for kicking : are they included in or additional to the total of balls mentioned above ? I.e. is a total of 48 or 36 balls provided in total ?

Also : the Deflategate article states : "In 2006, the rules were altered so that each team uses its own footballs while on offense. Teams rarely handle a football used by the other team except after recovering a fumble or interception". This article needs to cover that if it still applies. How many balls from each team ?

American (grdiron) Football ball dimensions

edit

Why isn't the length and circumference given for the ball. One would think this would be basic information...Duh!!! AA Pilot16 (talk) 15:14, 20 May 2017 (UTC)Reply

All American

edit

Other than the second word and the first sentence of the paragraph about "other leagues", this article seems to be completely American. Humphrey Tribble (talk) 05:46, 11 November 2021 (UTC)Reply
