currently a nationally ranked sprinter. i have a nasty kick (former soccer player) and coaches want me to play. my worries are:

• little playing time for a large time commitment
• will cut into track pre-season and harm me more than help me

anybody who has advice would be amazing.

note: i have practiced field goal kicking outside of school as a small side hobby, so i know "proper" form.

I played varsity all 4 years of high school and have recently been given the opportunity to play college football at a very good academic, not very good at football, D3 school in New York. I was decent enough in high school but a lot of that was we didn’t play great teams, but this D3 school is interested in me regardless.

I never thought I’d have the opportunity to play in college, and honestly never wanted to because I don’t like football. I didn’t like the home games, hated practices, was pretty much indifferent if we won or loss, etc. A big part of this was because for much of high school I lacked confidence and wasn’t very social, and I had a bunch of coaching changes.

I wish I was able to love football like many of my other peers so this decision could be easier for me, so I want to know if you guys have any advice on how I can love football some more, if that even is possible.

Sorry this may be a dumb question I just want some advice

2A Utah championship just got over yesterday, San Juan has just won their 4th straight championship.

I’m 6’0 167 and play MLB. How can I lose fat and gain muscle to move back to safety?

The position I want to play most is RB but everyone says I should do LB even though I’m only 5’8

are these good stats for me splitting reps with 1-2 other rbs

114 carries 575 yards 8 tds

I know I’m probably unc status now but i know all my others unc’s can relate man . Don’t take high school football for granted, theirs nothing like it I’ve even played at the college level. My old high school coach used to tell us that he would give his left nut to play again and now I understand 😂

Attended a local high school game last week where on one of the final plays of the game the leading team decided to commit an intentional safety instead of punting, to burn the clock. It was ruled a safety (with some objection from the losing team) and the game ended as normal. After I went back and looked at the video, the punter who ran the safety back tripped and his knee touched down on the 1/2 yard line. The ball had broken the plane of the goal line at that point. Is the ruling considered the same as a touchdown where you just have to cross the plane for a safety to be counted? I know hs rules can vary, but just haven’t seen this before.

I am a sophomore who was starting on freshman team and a jv backup and varsity benchwarmer I started playing last year but I broke my foot so missed most of the season and am all better now but my team is going to state and it’s motivated me so much to get to varsity next year I play WR and Corner/DB and was wondering what I should work on to make it there I don’t think I wanna continue playing at wr as I hate the position but I’m 5’9 135 and just want to be something great I’m going to work so hard for this but just want advice/tips on what to work on also wondering if anyone here has done the same thing my DB coach says he sees so much potential in me as I’m a really fast learner also are there any good YouTubers I should watch that would help me?

Can y’all help us win a million $ stadium makeover, all you have to do is like this post, we’re so close!! https://www.instagram.com/reel/DA6OErZPc7q/?igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==

Was a victory but still kind of sucks because it was our last game and we wanted to finish it all the way through.

We lost 27-20 in an overtime thriller at the PIAA D-10 4A semifinals, I work with the marching band.

Hey y’all, finished my first year playing tackle in HS. I’m a Freshman, 5’11 156lbs with really long arms, decent speed, and a love for the game and my team. I didn’t start unfortunately but I did get decent PT (8 mins a game usually) the team finished 2-7 and we got blown out most games although we def could have gone 4-5 or 5-4.

I finished the season with 10 total tackles and a forced fumble. I played outside linebacker last year but after asking my coach he told me that I was gifted to play on the outside and should try out DE next year.

I go to a somewhat average high school the competition used to be big but as the seniors left it’s gone down I’m getting bored I’m about to go into my senior season next year with 0 offers (partially due to my grades) I want to go to a better high school with more competition but I know I can do it because I’ve beaten people way stronger faster and bigger then me so my question is should I transfer for a long shot chance to get more exposure or stay at the high school I’m at now and just hope I get recognized

Several years ago, my company, which scans motion picture film, bought a bunch of gear at auction. In one of the boxes was a stack of 16mm film reels containing what looks like the entire 1976 season for Beverly Hills (California) High School football team. We had a little free time recently and got around to scanning them.

Here's a YouTube playlist containing all the reels: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL4Sl4GkfJ2LnWjNPTEq4skUnDxnujKxmN

From what we can tell this team included Hosea Fortune, who went on to play for the San Diego Chargers in 1983

I’m wanting to start football at the end of the year currently a sophomore but will be going into junior year. I’m 6’4 210lbs, don’t really know much about football, can catch pretty well according to my friends, gonna start working out.

Hi All,

I'm a published author of YA (young adult/teen) novels. My current book in progress has twin brothers who used to play football together. One is the qb; the other was WR -they were great together. The receiver quit the team after freshman year. Brother is still the star qb and is mad that his brother quit. Book is set during their junior year. A big part of this story is them reconnecting, and I initially wanted it to be via football.

My original idea was to have the current good receiver injured, and no decent backups on the team. QB wants his brother to rejoin the team as receiver (and they'd make it to playoffs, etc.)The story is set in a small town.

However, I don't think this will work, will it? The research I've done indicates that players have to be on the roster from the beginning. So even if a player is injured and the backups aren't any good, the team needs to work with the players they have, right? Just like NFL, except no mid-season trades :)

I was hoping there might be exceptions in really small towns, but they'd still have to abide by division rules, I assume. What do you guys think?

I’m in a bit of a dilemma and could use some advice. I played football in 7th, 8th, and 9th grade, but I tore my MCL in 9th grade (football practice), and it’s left me feeling pretty anxious about getting re-injured. Now I’m debating whether to continue with football, which I don’t really enjoy that much, or step back and prioritize my health.

I’m worried about the risk of injury and how it might affect me in the long run. I’d love to hear from anyone who’s faced a similar situation or has any insights on how to manage these fears. Should I stick it out with football, or is it better to focus on something else? Thanks!

I really want to watch an old game from 2015. I know it’s now subscription based but is there anyway to watch games? if it’s less than two dollars I’ll pay to watch the single game and download it so I have it for the future

That’s all, just disappointed, we were the 4 seed too

South Range is a school district in Mahoning County, Ohio, and over the past several years, whenever they play against my alma mater, they always win and never let my team score a single point!

i’m starting my first year next year and i’m going to play Oline, Dline, and TE. what gloves should i get? idk if i need lineman gloves or receiver. or is there gloves that have a mix of both? thanks.

I really lack the ability to play calls, Im supposed to play oline but mostly dline (JV) (its confusing bc one of the coaches (who was previously head coach) said I was oline, even though i have yet to play oline and only play dline when they put me in rarely after riding the bench).

I feel like im there physically, 6 foot ~200 pounds not really fat and strong-ish atleast at my age, stronger then everyone but one of the linemen on the jv team, but i feel like the big reason im not in is because i dont know "football language" (and some small stuff like my stance, how upwards i am when getting up during plays, etc). this is my first year ever playing football, never really watched football before last yr, and cant for the life of me find out what plays like 43 wing, black 80, and stuff like that, mainly the numbers because i believe i can decipher what they means (first letter in the alpha beta charlie delta type of stuff) but stuff like wing and wham (which i assume is also the first letter, but i dont know what w means).

I just need understanding with the numbers, and if someone can send me a link for an indepth breakdown of this stuff that would help extraordinarily.
