Minecraft Football

A few friends and I came up with a way to play NFL rules football in Minecraft.

A few friends and I came up with a way to play NFL rules football in Minecraft. We are trying to set up a league, and are looking for players to try out. If you're interested, please reply here or DM me on Discord @ CJHammond20#3932
[TL;DR]

Technically, Minecraft isn't a football video game, so I understand if this thread gets removed. That being said, I believe that the people viewing the "Other Football Games" threads would be more interested in this topic than the people viewing the "Minecraft" threads.

*ALL RULES NOT SPECIFIED HERE ARE BASE NFL RULES*
*THESE RULES ARE ONLY EXPLANATIONS, EXPANSIONS, EDITS, OR REMOVALS OF NFL RULES*

Gameplay:

• A trident is used as the football.
• 3v3 game (subs allowed).
• Offense must have an OL and a QB, the 3rd player can play TE, WR, or HB.
• Defense has no positional restrictions.
• To start the play, the OL starts with the trident at the LOS, turns around to face the QB, and drops the football (trident).
• The QB can run the ball, drop the ball to the 3rd player (usually the HB), or throw the ball to the 3rd player.
• The OL cannot have the ball dropped or thrown to them.
• The OL can block by punching defensive players. This will knock them back.
• To catch a pass after the ball (trident) has been thrown, an eligible receiver or defender must be hit by the ball and take damage. Whoever takes the damage, has caught the ball.
• To make a tackle, a defender must punch the ball carrier.
• PAT/Field Goal: Throw the trident through the goal post.
• Punt: Offense must say that they are punting. Wherever the ball lands is where the opposing team gets possession.

Penalties:

• Offensive Holding: Offensive players cannot punch defenders that are 5 yards beyond the LOS.
• Pass Interference: Defenders cannot punch any eligible receivers while the trident is in the air.
• Defensive Holding: Defenders cannot punch any offensive player that doesn't have the football.
• Ineligible Receiver Downfield: The OL cannot catch passes.

League:
The league is a 3v3 league. Looking to have at least 3 teams. We need players, coaches, and GMs; and yes, you could be a GM, coach, and player all at the same time. If you're interested, please comment or DM me on Discord @ CJHammond20#3932

lol, I honestly don't know what to think. Congratulations for being creative.

You do know there is Roblox Football too right? (my youngest plays it occasionally) -- and I think there is even leagues and whatnot for that as well -- so that may be more so what you are looking for?

Thanks! I've never heard of Roblox football. I'll give it a look, but I think I'm going to try to make this work first. If this fails, then I'll give that a shot. Thanks for letting me know though!

There's a new game kind of like Roblox football called Gridiron. Free to play on steam.

ROBLOX FOOTBALL > MINECRAFT FOOTBALL!!!

I've checked out Roblox football and Gridiron. The gameplay from these is close, but it isn't what I'm looking for. With the lack of interest in Minecraft football, I've given up.

Minecraft football should be fun!

How would one even play Minecraft Football exactly? I feel like that would be extremely difficult.
