Editing Touchback (section)

==Canadian football==
In [[Canadian football]] the term ''touchback'' is not used. The failure to advance a kicked ball out of the goal area results in a [[single (football)|single point]] being scored by the kickers, as well as possession by the receivers at their 35-yard line or at the point the ball was kicked from. A turn-over by fumble or interception in the defense's goal area that is not advanced back into the field of play, or a kick that touches any part of the goalpost apparatus without subsequently going through the goalposts for a successful field goal results in a scrimmage on the 25-yard line with no points awarded. If a player's momentum causes the ball to be in the end zone, the ball is treated as if it was recovered in the end zone.
