Soccer Middle


When describing defensive positions & terms such as “Support” it is necessary to refer to the “middle of the field”. The middle of the field is the area that includes the Halfway Line & is where the midfielders generally stay the most. It is between the “Attacking Third” & the “Defending Third”. The term “middle” is sometimes incorrectly used to refer to the “center”, which is the area between the 2 goals. (See “Middle Third” & “Center Of The Field“).


Soccer Center Of The Field


(aka The Center). It is often necessary to refer to the “center of the field” (e.g., “don’t go past the center”). The center of the field is roughly the area between the two soccer goals and is where the CFB (Center Fullback), CMF (Center Midfielder) & CF (Center Forward) usually start the soccer game. The term “middle” is sometimes incorrectly used to refer to the “center”. (See “Middle” and “Center The Ball“).
