ABSTRACT:
A gameboard provides a miniature football field having a plurality of spaced parallel yard lines and side lines. A plurality of peg holes are provided down the center of the playing field and along one of the side lines, holes being provided at each yard line. A football shaped peg of a first color, a football shaped peg of a second different color and a plurality of pegs of a third different color are adapted to removably fit in the peg holes. A dice box extends perpendicularly from one end of the gameboard and has a chute formed therein and opening at the surface of the gameboard. A plurality of dice of the first color and a plurality of dice of the second color are provided. A plurality of play cards indicate various offensive plays and all types of playing variations which occur in a football game whereby a player rolls a predetermined number of the dice of one of the colors into the chute of the dice box via the opening thereof to determine a yardage gain or loss after referring to a play card to determine his play. The player places the football peg on the correct yard line in the center of the playing field and the side line peg on the same yard line as the football peg to mark the line of scrimmage before the next play is called.
