how many combined plays can be found in the average high school football game?
this involves the combined total for both teams
ball park guess will suffice

Fast pace no huddle - we averaged 63-65/game.

So given those numbers I'm guessing you can see anywhere from 80-130 depending on the two teams that are playing.

Running a "normal" offense (IE, not a Dbl Wing time consuming offense or a hurry-up) we usually get about 100 plays a game combined (110ish with special teams).

I have some recent stats.
Our Frosh & JV teams averaged 44 plays of offense (regular huddle pace), 43 plays of defense, and 18 Kicking Game plays. 105 plays total.
Our Varsity Offense, which is fast-paced no huddle, averaged 71 plays per game. Our defense averaged 68 plays per game. We had an average of 25 Kicking Game plays. 164 plays total.
Our opponents that ran a regular huddle offense (from scouting them) averaged 49 plays of offense, 49 plays of defense, and 22 kicking game plays. 120 plays.
I hope this helps. It gets very interesting when you start to look at plays in each field zone, and crucial down plays: 3rd/4th, Goalline, etc.

Our average plays combined are 104. The bad news is we only average 48 of those plays

I have been following this for a while.
2 normal offensive teams at the Varsity level in a typical game will get between 100-120 in a regulation HS game. Lots of other variables can change it quite a bit but that is a ball park I have found. 104 seems like a good average.

We had a game this year where we ran 82 plays ... on offense. Unfortunately, we lost 66-54, but there was a hell of a lot of offense.

I was wondering about this in the fall so I went and figured it up from a bunch of box scores in the paper. The average was around 50 plays per team, or 100 total snaps on offense and defense. More like 110-115 if you include punts, FGs, and kickoffs.
This was Federation rules with most teams huddling. We also have a lot of conservative, run heavy offenses around here. The bad passing teams usually had about 10 more snaps from throwing incompletions. The teams that got blown out sometimes only had around 30 total plays on offense for the whole game because they couldn't sustain drives.

Our video editing system cuts up the plays by "clips". We hit 152 - 159 in 8 out of 9 games, with no more than 8 clips being false starts, timeouts at the LOS etc. We do NOT film penalties. That would increase our clips by about 15. Jack Rarick Holt Football www.coachsvideoassistant.com |

We run a faster pace offense and between O, D and ST we are usually between 135 and 140 plays a game.

DW offense -- 56.3 ave offensive plays, 49.7 defensive plays per game, 106 plays ave. Range was 43-73 on O, 34-69 on D.
An interesting sidenote: the last half the season we played the "slow-down game." We literally stood in the huddle until the official raised his hand to signal ten seconds left on the clock. We ran to the line, ran our play, and did it all over again. We increased our number of plays to 62.8 on offense compared to the first half of the season (51.2). Defensively the second half the season our opponent ran 40.8 plays compared to the first half ave. of 57. The least number of plays we ran the second half was 53 compared to our opponents 34. Our time of possession was 35 minutes. The most plays we ran the second half was 73 compared to our opponents 40. Sadly, we lost that game in overtime.

Several years ago, at the sophomore level, we averaged 56 offensive plays a game running no-huddle. We had two games with over 70 plays on offense. Yet we still managed to only win 5 games that year!

Along the same lines I wonder how many Series you average a game. This past year we averaged about 14 possession a game on offense and defense.

Coaches,
Does any one have their season broke down into as many specific areas in regards to the # of plays and the percentage of the game they occurred? Like the # of 1-10, 2-Long,2-medium, 2-short, 3-long, 3-medium, Short Yardage in the open field (-1 to -15), Coming out (-15 to +40), Going In (+40 to +25), Red Zone (+25 to +10), and Goal line (+10 to TD).
Thanks
