How It Works
Field goal distance in football is calculated using a standard formula:
📐 Formula:
Field Goal Distance=Line of Scrimmage+17 yards\text{Field Goal Distance} = \text{Line of Scrimmage} + 17 \text{ yards}Field Goal Distance=Line of Scrimmage+17 yards
This accounts for:
- ➕ 7 yards (distance from line of scrimmage to where the ball is held)
- ➕ 10 yards (depth of the end zone)
How to Use the Calculator
- Enter the line of scrimmage
This is the yard line where the play starts (e.g., 30-yard line). - Click “Calculate”
- Get your result instantly
The calculator will show the exact field goal distance in yards.
✅ Example:
If the ball is on the 25-yard line: 25+17=42-yard field goal25 + 17 = \text{42-yard field goal}25+17=42-yard field goal
