There is no conversion between square yards and yards, because the units refer to different things. "Square yards" is a unit of area, while "yards" is a unit of length. But there is a relationship. Taking the square root of the units of square yards will give you the measure of the side of a square whose area is equal to that number of square yards. For example, an area of 4 square yards can be represented by a square whose sides each measure 2 yards, 2 being the square root of 4.
