How old are the players?

V or JV, stay off the field. I can see cheating in somewhat from the wide side on a goal line play with junior high or possibly 9th grade teams --- definitely cheat in on youth (below JH) games.

Wings should NEVER start on the field, no matter where the ball is. Stay wide, get to the goal line, and you don't have to worry about back-pedaling if a sweep comes to your side.
