Yellow flag—delay of game—onsides kick • When one of the refs throws a yellow flag on the field that means a Foul has been committed. Watch your QB’s body language which tells you who committed the foul his team or the other team. If the QB acts really mad you will know it’s a big penalty against his team. • Don’t forget the QB has only 40 seconds to make sure the center snaps the ball to start a new play…. if that doesn’t happen and 40 seconds on the official time clock are gone the QB’s team is charged with to a Delay of Game Penalty. His team loses 5 yards. Keep track of how many Delay of Game penalties your QB gets in a game so you can rate his performance at the end of the game. • The Referee lets each team know when only 2 minutes are left before the end of the first half and 2 minutes left before the end of the game. • Onsides Kick: when the clock is winding down at the end of the game and your QB’s team has just scored a touchdown or field goal but is still losing the game your team’s kicker tee’s up the ball …but instead of kicking the ball to the other team as he normally does after points are scored, he kicks what’s called an ONSIDE Kick. "An onside kick" starts out the same as any other kickoff or free kick, except that it is kicked in a particular way to give the kicking team the best chance of getting the ball back instead of kicking it to the opposing team.
