The shape
The 13-a-side (3-2-2-2-3) sets out one in goalkeeper, 3 in full-back line, 2 in half-back line, 2 in midfield, 2 in half-forward line and 3 in full-forward line. The diagram shows where each position starts, on a 145 m by 90 m gaelic football pitch drawn to scale with your own end at the top. Use it as the starting picture for your team sheet, then adjust the depth of each line to the players you have and the opponent in front of you.
