A method of game play by a first and a second opponent comprising:

• providing a game board for placement on a level surface, the game board providing a game board surface resembling an American football field including spaced apart and opposing end zone lines;
• providing a tri-cornered, flatly formed game piece, the game piece adapted for sliding on the game board, the game piece providing numerical values of 6, 3 and 2, one of the numerical values associated with each one of the three corners of the game piece;
• thrusting the game piece in contact with the game board by each of the opponents, alternately, until the game piece is positioned on one of the zone lines;
• assigning a value in game points depending on which of the corners of the game piece is situated beyond said zone line;
• and after each score of 6, thrusting the game piece through the air toward a field goal and assigning a game point value of 1 point when the game piece passes through the field goal and no points when the game piece does not pass through the field goal, whereby said method of game play simulates actual American football in action and scoring.
