Success at means the goal. Success in means the result.
One football field is 300 yards from goal line to goal line. 1 yard = 3 feet. If you are wanting to know how many feet are from goal line to goal line, it would be 300 feet. The end-zones are another 10 yards each. This adds another 60 total feet. If you are asking from goal post to goal post it would be 360 feet.
There are two ways to consider this:You can either consider the position of the ball on the field as the distance from the offensive team's goal line (making the objective to get to the opponent's goal line of reaching 100), or as the distance from the opponent's goal line (making the objective to get to the opponent's goal line of reaching 0).In either case, every advance of the ball adds to the distance, going in the positive direction, and every loss subtracts from the distance, going in the negative distance.The loss of 5 yards on each play would be represented as 3 moves of negative 5, ie 3 moves of 5 to the left on a horizontal number line.The difference comes in where the goal lines are situated on the number line:In the first case (objective to reach 100):You goal line is at 0 and the opponent's goal line is at 100. The value of the position is the distance from your goal line; by subtracting this from 100 you can work out how far is required to go.In the second case (objective to reach 0)Your goal line is at -100 (effectively a loss of 100) and the opponent's goal line is at 0. The absolute value (that is the value ignoring the negative sign) of the position is the distance remaining to the opponent's goal line.The same can be considered for the distance to the next first down; the starting and objective values become 0 and 10 (in the first case), or -10 and 0 (in the second case).
what is the goal of statistics
Ice hockey is played on a rectangular rink with curved corners whose length may vary from 184 to 200 ft (56-61 m), its width from 85 to 98 ft (26-30 m).Hockey rinks in most of the world follow the International Hockey Federation specifications, which is 61 metres (200 ft) × 30 metres (98 ft) with a corner radius of 4.2 metres (14 ft). The distance from the end boards to the nearest goal line is 4 metres (13 ft). The distance from each goal line to the nearest blue line is 17 metres (56 ft). The distance between the two blue lines is also 17 metres (56 ft)North AmericanMost North American rinks follow the National Hockey League specifications of 200 feet (61 m) × 85 feet (26 m). The corners are rounded in the arc of a circle with a radius of 28 feet (8.5 m) The NHL attacking zones are expanded, with blue lines 64 feet (20 m) from the goal line and 50 feet (15 m) apartOriginsThe rink specifications originate ice surface measured 204 feet (62 m) × 80 feet (24 m).
