Key Points
- The field of play is rectangular and marked with lines called boundary lines. The two longer boundary lines are touch lines and the two shorter lines are goal lines. It is divided into two halves by a halfway line, which joins the midpoints of the two touch lines.
- The centre mark is at the midpoint of the halfway line. A circle with a radius of 9.15m is marked around it.
- Marks are made off the field of play, 9.15m from the corner arc and at right angles to the goal lines and the touch lines, to ensure defending players retreat this distance when a corner kick is taken.
- The length of the touch line is greater than the length of the goal line. All lines are not more than 12cm wide.
- Length (touch line): Minimum 90m, maximum 120m.
- Width (goal line): Minimum 45m maximum 90m.
- For senior football the recommended field dimension is 105m long and 68m wide.
