Default distance between players and start positions ?

Hi,

I'm currently reading diferent rules sets,making my own ruleset cooking (mixing simulation rules and easy and fast game) and I'm a little confused with the distance measurements between players, since it could be very diferent from a ruleset to another one.

SO I was thinking about one clear rule to manage that : any player has to respect a distance of 1 base lenght or widht with other players.

If the player is on side of another player of his team, he has to be at a base width distance of it.

If the player is behind (on in front) on another player of his team, he has to be at a base lenght distance of it.


What do you think of it ? (remember I play on a 42x22" field)


Should I include linemen in that rule, or use a specific rule for it ?


Another thing : Some rules allows only 7 players on the LOS. On real football, it's just (correct me if I'm wrong) a minimum. How do you manage that ?


thank you for your help. Remember, think it easy for the poor frenchies
