What are some simple end zone patterns (Notre Dame lines, diamonds, etc.) that you guys use, and what are the measurements that you use? Spent some time searching for this and there doesn’t seem to be anything on here with the specific measurements and I thought it’d be useful to have several on one thread. Thanks.

If your mascot was the Pirates, I always thought it would be cool to just paint the end zone black with a white skull and cross bones in the middle.

I did checkerboards 2 years in a row.
9x9
3 tall for 27 feet total
1.5 feet off the end line and goal line.
Can take it all the way across the field,
It's a lot of paint, but man it was awesome.
Did diamonds another year, like Missouri. It looked good, but everyone asked why not checkerboards?
It's easier and less paint than checkers.
Tip of Diamond touched both lines, width was 18feet,
So 30feet tall and 18 feet wide.
Each side touched the next one.
You can fill them in, put your mascot name in them
Like
(E)(a)(g)(l)(e)(s)
Paint contrast color outside the diamond.
Black in, white out, etc.
I should been a field crew guy, not a coach. Lol

Just a word of caution from personal experience:
Doing a full endzone pattern (particularly checkerboard) can come back to haunt you. Had a game winning TD called back by a bad call when the Wide Receiver clearly caught the ball inside the endzone but OUTSIDE the checkerboard. The official just made a human mistake and saw him catch it "out of bounds" because it happened rather quickly. Had there been no checkerboard, it would have been an easy call.
