In the middle of the posts is 6 points and between the side poles is 1 point. We also have soccer but that's the one where your hands can't touch the ball ( in football u can touch it)

Nah its different to American..iuno what Canadian football is. Its not rugby either.

Theres no pads fist of all. its not likerugby. you run and kick the ball or you handball the ball by holdin it in 1 hand and hitting it with a closed fist. goals are worth 6 points behinds are worth 1. played on an oval..so its pretty round. iuno what else to explain
