    Using attached chart, an average International Soccer field would be 75 yd. x 115 yd. which would give you a square footage of 77,625 sq. ft.

    There are a number of different factors that determine the size and dimensions of any soccer field. For organized play including high school, college, club, and professional leagues, the soccer field generally falls within the dimensions listed on link:

    Re: American Football the answer would be 57,600 sq. ft.

    All football fields share the overall outside dimensions. The outside measurements below include the End Zone. High School, College and the NFL all have overall outside dimensions of:

    Length: 360 feet or 120 yards
    Width: 160 feet or 53 1/3 yards

    NFL Hash marks are the narrowest of all the levels of football play. They measure 70 feet, 9 inches from the sidelines and are 18 feet, 6 inches wide. (same as the width of the goal posts) High School: the width of the hashmarks are 53 feet, 4 inches College: hashmarks are 40 feet wide

    The length of the rectangular field (pitch) specified for international adult matches is in the range 100-110 m (110-120 yards) and the width is in the range 65-75 m (70-80 yards). Fields for non-international matches may be 100-130 yards length and 50-100 yards in width.
