A standard soccer field is typically between 100 to 130 yards (90 to 120 meters) long and 50 to 100 yards (45 to 90 meters) wide. For international matches, the dimensions are more specific, with length ranging from 110 to 120 yards (100 to 110 meters) and width from 70 to 80 yards (64 to 75 meters). The preferred size for many professional teams' stadiums is about 115 yards (105 meters) long and 74 yards (68 meters) wide.

Youth and different age group fields vary in size, being smaller to accommodate the players' age and level of play, for example:

  • Ages 6-8 (4v4): 25-35 yards long and 15-25 yards wide
  • Ages 9-10 (7v7): 55-65 yards long and 35-45 yards wide
  • Ages 11-12 (9v9): 70-80 yards long and 45-55 yards wide

College soccer fields typically measure between 110-120 yards in length and 70-75 yards in width.

Goalposts on a professional soccer field are 8 feet high and 8 yards wide. This range of sizes accommodates various levels from youth soccer through to professional international matches.
