English term or phrase: 10 Yard Dash
Still for the same website.
I am assuming those terms are used for American football (not sure at all!). I have no clue how to render this in French. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Explanation:
Comme l'a dit l'autre utilisateur, c'est très important d'avoir une grande accélération. Le "10 yard dash" fait partie de l'entrainement des joueurs, tout comme le "40 yard dash" (sprint sur 40 yards).

D'après la deuxième source cet entrainement peut s'effectuer avec ou sans ballon.
