Soccer field
A regulation soccer field for international matches measures between 110 and 120 yards (100 to 110 m) long and 70 to 80 yards (64 to 75 m) wide, according to FIFA’s Laws of the Game. This page covers the exact size ranges, penalty area dimensions, and how field size varies by competition level.
Dimensions
| Measurement | Yards | Meters |
|---|---|---|
| Length (international) | 110 to 120 | 100 to 110 |
| Width (international) | 70 to 80 | 64 to 75 |
Non-international minimums and maximums
For domestic matches not governed by international rules, FIFA allows a wider range: length between 100 and 130 yards (90 to 120 m) and width between 50 and 100 yards (45 to 90 m), giving individual leagues and clubs some flexibility based on available space.
Penalty area and goal
| Feature | Yards | Meters |
|---|---|---|
| Penalty area (from goal line) | 18 | 16.5 |
| Penalty area width | 44 | 40.3 |
| Goal width | 8 | 7.32 |
| Goal height | 2.67 | 2.44 |
The penalty area extends 18 yards out from each goal line and spans 44 yards wide, marking the zone where a foul against the attacking team results in a penalty kick rather than a regular free kick.
Center circle
The center circle has a radius of 10 yards (9.15 m) from the halfway line’s midpoint, marking the minimum distance opposing players must stand from the ball during kickoff.
Soccer field vs American football field
| Field | Length | Width |
|---|---|---|
| Soccer (international) | 110 to 120 yd | 70 to 80 yd |
| American football | 120 yd (incl. end zones) | 53.33 yd |
A soccer field is generally wider than an American football field, since football’s playing surface is narrower and elongated to suit a game built around forward passing plays along a fixed direction of play.
