Kick madden

Kick madden is a game that has been adapted from the EA Sports Madden series of NFL games. Quite simply the game is that each player can only kick (meaning punt or field goal attempt) when they receive possession of the ball. This forces the opposition to try to score through a either a punt return, kick return, field goal or fumble recovery. The aim of the game is to score more points than the opposition and use field position to your advantage. There are a number of rules that must be followed during play, if a player breaks a rule the opponent is given two offensive plays, after these plays the player must then kick (unless they have scored).
Origins
The idea was developed in Lancaster, England when games of Madden became a bit boring.
