Highschool? Everyone i knew got in in elementary or middle school. Those who tried to start in highschool never even touched the field
That's actually so fucked up. How can you encouragd or even allow children to join activities that you know is going to injure them permanently?
Usually for younger teams there are rules against tackles, or a variation called "Flag football" is played where you are essentially tackled if a flag is taken from your waist
true for elementary, but i was doing full contact starting 6th grade (age 11,) lived all over the South and it's the norm. i actually really like American football, the sport itself. but can't say i like that part....
