9

Define the following terms:



9a

Snap


The act of putting the ball into play typically by having the center move it from the LOS into the quarterback’s hand. The player moving the ball is said to be “snapping” while the player getting the ball is said to be “receiving the snap”.


9b

Pass


When the quarterback attempts to advance the ball by throwing it from behind the LOS, forward to a receiver.


9c

Down


Each team gets a series of 4 downs to advance the ball to the scoring area. A down is the period from the snap of the ball until the end of the play. A team can also earn a first down by advancing the ball beyond certain points in the field of play.


9d

Formation


The pattern in which the offensive team lines up at the LOS prior to snapping the ball.


9e

Huddle


When the offensive team gathers before a play to set up their formation and plays to be used for that down.


9f

Incompletion


When the offense attempts a forward pass but the ball is not caught or is caught outside the field of play. Play will stop and the down is over.


9g

Interception


When a defensive player catches a pass thrown by the offense. The defensive player can attempt to carry the ball to opposing team’s end zone for a score, in which case the act is referred to as “a pick 6″.


9h

Tackle


This is the action of stopping the ball carrier by pulling a flag from the flag belt. At this, the down is over and play stops.


9i

Touchdown


This is a score earned by advancing the all into the end zone. The scoring team receives 6 points.


9j

Conversion


After a touchdown the team that scored is allowed a 1 attempt to score bonus points. The bonus can be either 1 or 2 points depending on how the team advances the ball and/or where the team advance the ball from. Typically, 1 point is awarded for scoring from 5 yards out and 2 points are awarded for scoring from 10 yards out. Some leagues instead score 1 point for a running play or 2 points for a passing play.

Read Galatians 5:19-25. Which list of character qualities best describes a Christian coach, player, and spectator? How are the good fruits obtained?




19 Now the works of the flesh are evident, which are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, 20 idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, 21 envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God. 22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law. 24 And those who are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. 25 If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.
Galatians 5:19-25 (NKJV)
