In gridiron football, a punt is a kick performed by dropping the ball from the hands and then kicking the ball before it hits the ground. The most common use of this tactic is to punt the ball downfield to the opposing team, usually on the final down , with the hope of maximizing the distance the opposing team must advance in order to score.
Similarly to association football, the game begins with a coin toss to determine which team will kick off to begin the game and which goal each team will defend. [2] The options are presented again to start the second half; the choices for the first half do not automatically determine the start of the second half (i.e. it is possible for the same team to kick off both halves).
