I bump this topic, because even with the help I received, the placing sequence stills not clear.
in the MFCA ruleset , we read :
Quote:
Quote:
1. The offense is set up using a seven man line and any back-field formation
2. The defensive team is set up in any desired formation.
3. The offensive linemen are given their blocking angles.
4. The defensive team players are turned to the desired direction for “slant-left”, “slant-right”, etc.
5. The ball is placed under the selected ball carrier’s arm, or on the quarterbacks hand or tee. Then,
the offensive backs may be pointed in any direction.
6. The switch is turned on and the play develops.

and a few lines behind :
Quote:
c) After both offense and defense have set up their formations, the offensive coach
can then pivot (angle) the quarterback and running backs in any direction towards, or
parallel to the line of scrimmage. Normally, the defense can pivot the same number of
players any direction it so chooses.

so if I understand correctly, we have :
1 - offense formation setup : straight lined figs
2 - defense formation setup : straight lined figs
3 - O linemen pivots/angles
4 - all the defense squad can pivot and angle too
5 - offense running backs and QB pivots/angles
6 - defense pivots and angles as many figures as offense did in stage 5
7- board on
DO I understand correctly the formation/placing sequence ?
Another question : what about the wide recievers and tight ends pivots ?
thanks for your help
