Try
1. After a touchdown, the scoring team is allowed a try during
one scrimmage down. The ball may be spotted anywhere between the
inbounds lines, two or more yards from the goal line. The successful
conversion counts one point by kick; two points for a successful
conversion by touchdown; or one point for a safety.
2. The defensive team never can score on a try. As soon as defense
gets possession or the kick is blocked or a touchdown is not scored,
the try is over.
3. Any distance penalty for fouls committed by the defense that
prevent the try from being attempted can be enforced on the succeeding
try or succeeding kickoff. Any foul committed on a successful try
will result in a distance penalty being assessed on the ensuing
kickoff.
4. Only the fumbling player can recover and advance a fumble during
a try.
