ABSTRACT:
A board game for the playing of a simulated football game with one or more players and comprising a board having a football playing field inscribed thereon for the playing of the game, a plurality of defense instruction cards and offense instruction cards stored on the board for individual selection, if desired, during the playing of the game, a play result tabulation table inscribed on the game board for cooperating with a plurality of offense style cards and defense style cards for determining the results of each play of the game. At the outset the player or players determine a particular offense style to be used throughout the game, and a die is cast to determine the player to start the game. Each game starts by placing a player token on the twenty yard line indicated on the football playing field provided on the game board, and the team in control of the ball will be on the offense and the other team will be on defense. The player representing the offensive team may select a play of his own or may use predetermined plays of the instruction cards, and the player representing the defensive teams selects a proper defense instruction card. The offense and defense style cards corresponding to the play are each placed in the proper place on the tabulation table, and a direct reading corresponding to the two co-acting plays is taken from the table to determine the end result of the play. The player token is moved on the football field according to the play result, and the action is repeated until a complete game has been played.
