So the burning question is, what is the correct size of a football pitch and how does it vary? Well as shown by the hand drawn diagram (see top right), the actual football pitch length can vary enormously from 100 yards (91.44m) to 130 yards (118.9m). Furthermore the width of a football pitch can vary by 100% from just 50 (45.7m) to 100 yards (91.44m). So if you think that Tottenham's pitch at White Hart Lane appears to be small and must need a trip to Specsavers, in actual fact your eyes are propbably fine.
Most of the time the field is grass, but sometimes fake grass called artificial turf is used. Because the lines on the field look like a grid, the nickname for the field is the gridiron. Dimensions. The main playing area of the field is 100 yards (300 feet) long by 53 1/3 yards (160 feet) wide. End Zones. At each end of the field is an end zone. This area extends the field another 10 yards on each side. The line between the field and the end zone is the goal line. In order to score a touchdown some portion of the ball must cross the goal line in the possession of an offensive player.
