The American football field has specific and unique dimensions, initially inspired by rugby fields. The length spans 100 yards from goal line to goal line, with 10-yard end zones, making the total playing area 110 yards. The field width measures 53.3 yards from sideline to sideline, with hash marks spaced 1 yard apart.

In American football, the standard field dimension s are 120 yards long and 53 1/3 yards wide. The last 10 yards of length on either end of the field are considered “end zones” in which a player scores. These dimensions are consistent for football played at the high school, college, and professional (NFL) levels.

The standard football field is 100 yards long (300 feet) and 53.3 yards wide (160 feet). The field is divided into two equal halves by the 50-yard line, with end zones on both ends.
