We use CINS or TINS

Colour or Team, Infraction, Number, Status of the Play

You know, Jug, whenever I see you post the "Canadian Ruling" I can't help wondering what you guys are doing with that missing down from every series. Do you think they're like coupons or something, if you save enough of them we'll let you use them to buy something from us?

In our games we have enough punts as it is. I could only imagine how many we'd have if we only had 3 downs.

I'd love to see numbers comparing the two. Our field of playlayer ratio is 22% larger than yours, so we should have more open room to complete passes.

But like any sport, catching is fundamental.

The teams get the coupons but unfortunately have to use them up in order to send out the 12th player.

I was once on a crew where we allowed a team to cash in a coupon. It was ~ 2001 and some youth leagues do play 4 down football. So we went with the 5th down. We disguised is as a repeated 3rd down after an incomplete pass. The silly downsbox guy forget to bring his "5" with him - you know, to snap in place in downsbox, so we had to do something.

Luckily, that's the only time this has ever happened to me.
