The game start and restarts after every score with a ball kicked to the opposing team.
Same as rugby, where the ball must first be kicked (usually by the hooker in the scrum - 👋 right side 2nd row in high school here 😁).

Both in rugby and 'merican football points can be scored when the ball is kicked off the ground over the goal line (field goals).

The ball can also be turned over to opposing team directly off the foot when no longer possible to advance the ball down the field. - in rugby when the last back doesn't have a pitch man or the punter on fourth down in 'merican football.

But american football isn't rugby, because in both rugby and soccer, play continues "between plays".
But just like rugby, the ball is picked off the ground by "the guy in the center" rear of the scrum behind the line of possession (number 8 in rugby, center in football) and passed to the "first back" - stand off in rugby, 1/4 back in football who passes it to the first next back in rugby or 1/2 back in American Football.

Simple, no?

But that said, no idea why you guys call that "kick the ball around" game football and not "kick ball" and at least call rugby football 😆

And I also love a good, live kickball...err..soccer
Umm...I mean '[I]football[/I]' game
