A standard full-size football pitch for professional play is typically about 105 meters (115 yards) long and 68 meters (74 yards) wide, as recommended by FIFA. The length of a football pitch can range from 90 to 120 meters, and the width from 45 to 90 meters depending on the level of play and specific regulations, but the most common dimensions used internationally are 105 by 68 meters.
For smaller or amateur formats like 7-a-side, pitches can be much smaller, such as 30 meters by 50 meters.
So, to summarize:
- Standard professional pitch length: about 105 meters (115 yards)
- Length range allowed: 90 to 120 meters
- Width range allowed: 45 to 90 meters
- Common professional width: about 68 meters (74 yards)
These dimensions ensure optimal play conditions and follow international guidelines.
