Preconceived Notions Are Your Enemy In Pee Wee Football

Preconceived Notions

We all seem to have preconceived notions about people, places and things based on the information we have been exposed to or often based on the point of view of those in our immediate environment. In youth football, I can’t count the number of times I’ve been pleasantly surprised by the play and actions of teams and coaches. Quite often the reputation of these Pee Wee teams and coaches was a product of others, just the aggregated frustration and covetousness of other youth coaches, nothing more than just sour grapes. Unfortunately in the world of youth football coaching, these impressions and attitudes are pervasive, widespread and often WRONG.

Be Open Minded

When coaching Pee Wee football, I try to go into these situations with an open mind and a soft heart and let the other team and coaches prove me wrong. One of the most disliked and misunderstood coaches in two different leagues my teams have competed in has actually become a trusted friend and confidant. His organization has gone out of its way to treat us well and in turn we have gone out of our way to do the same for them. Now our organizations enjoy a strong but respectful rivalry and we look forward to playing each other every year for the right reasons. Would we have felt the same way if we listened to others and came into the game with one toe in the water? Probably not.

Huge Mistake

Unfortunately I too succumb to making judgments about people I know little about and in many cases these judgments are 100% wrong. I had the opportunity to meet and spend some time with Rick Neuheisel from UCLA last weekend at the Clinic of Champions in

Reno, Nevada. Coach Neuheisel gave a very sharp presentation on his version of the 2 minute offense and how UCLA will be drilling it this fall. I knew of Coach from his days at Colorado, his Buffalos were always a big game when my beloved Cornhuskers were on their schedule. Of course Coach Neuheisels unorthodox West Coast «outward bound» attitude was diametrically opposed to the Nebraska no-nonsense, blue collar, physical ground attack attitude. Coach was not a very well liked man in these parts, the West Coast persona, passing attack, surfer dude persona etc. Then there was the controversy at Washington University with a NCAA Tourney Hoops, pool, more bad publicity. For some reason, while no one around here knew the guy, he was known as «Skippy» and the usually polite Nebraska fans seemed to like to ridicule this man in the papers, on talk radio and in everyday fan conversation.

While one can’t take too much away from spending a couple of hours with someone, you can get somewhat of a feel for that person in my opinion. Coach Neuheisel opened his presentation with some background, he didn’t talk about his 66-30 collegiate head coaching record or his championships, he talked about some humbling moments he had as a player and how we could relate that to our teams and kids. I didn’t know that Coach walked on at UCLA as a very undersized quarterback who was given number 24X as a freshman. X meant you were a duplicate number and probably would never suit up or get into a game. Number 24 by the way that year was Freeman McNeil, so obviously they didn’t think Coach N was going to get on the field. In those days they didn’t redshirt freshmen at UCLA. Fortunately for coach, one of the other freshmen got homesick and quit so Coach got this players number, #20. Coach N was never in the game program that year, in fact the other kid quit so late that Coach N was known by the original #20’s name, not his own, as the game programs had already been printed.

UCLA and Coach Neueheisel

As the season progressed, UCLA was having a very poor season and the coaches were trying to get a spark on special teams. The coaches offered a chance to anyone that would volunteer to play special teams. Coach N volunteered to play and to his surprise the UCLA coaches assigned him to the kick return team, where his job was to block L4 on a trap type block. At just over 195 lbs Coach had to block other teams linebackers that weighed 230-250 running at full speed with malice in their hearts on their kick coverage teams. Coach had a number of very self depreciating stories to tell including one where he was knocked unconscious and his face mask was broken during one of these returns. He didn’t tell it in a manner to brag, but to instruct and to make a bit of fun of himself. A quarterback playing special teams as a designated blocker, that impressed me. He never mentioned his Rose Bowl win at UCLA or his Rose Bowl MVP award, nothing like that.

In the after-session mixer in the Speakers Suite Coach Neuheisel couldn’t have been different than what I imagined. He was shy, cordial, not outgoing at all, friendly, humble and very willing to offer help and guidance to any that asked, even to a lowly Pee Wee football coach like me. He went out of his way to offer support and appreciation for what youth coaches do for the game of football. He looked you in the eye, gave you a firm handshake and listened intently to what you were saying, asking great questions and asking for clarifications along the way. I came away from that experience with a much different opinion of Coach Neuheisel. He had absolutely nothing to gain by spending time with a youth coach from Nebraska, none of my kids are being recruited by UCLA and I’m certainly not a donor prospect for UCLA.

Lesson Learned

On my way back to my room I felt a bit ashamed at judging someone so wrongly without the benefit of more information or personal experience. I sure hope I’ve learned my lesson, because my prejudging has so often been so wrong and it’s incongruent with how I want my own kids or players to act. I had the very same experience with High School Coach Steve Calande from Pennsylvania, I was 200% wrong about him as well and now we are fast friends. My opinion changed after finally meeting him at a coaches Clinic in Pennsylvannia in 2002. The moral of the story is make your own decisions about people, including players, youth football coaches and parents. Keep an open mind and they may surprise you.

I’ve been on the other end of those situations myself. I can’t count the number of times guys have come to me after a clinic and told me while they were looking forward to hearing me speak, I was much different (in a postitive way) than they had expected. I’m not a win at all costs Pee Wee football coach in any way shape or form. Our premise is: you can win, have fun, play kids, be great sports and teach great fundamentals too, they aren’t mutually exclusive goals.

Football Cleats – Speed Demons

Some football cleats are designed for speed! You may argue that you can’t go wrong with a pair of good sturdy football cleats for in any sort of action on a football pitch, but there is so much research in materials while making shoes that it is becoming quite popular to recommend certain types and brands of shoes for certain roles in the field and speed is one requirement for quite a few player positions on a football field.

What are the some of the characteristics of football cleats designed for speed?

· They are low-cut cleats. They do not offer ankle protection, but facilitate better cutting, movement and speed. The mid cut cleats offer some amount of ankle protection, but also allow for speed running and are used by running backs, quarterbacks, etc. It is up to the player which one he feels comfortable in.

· They are lighter. Uppers are in a single layer, and the shoe is built to help players accelerate. The triangular studs at the front of the shoe give more traction while accelerating. Minimum materials are used to maintain the lightness.

· There are filaments which are placed strategically across the topside of the foot, like a suspension bridge, which offer greater support to the foot. Such features are patented technologies of manufacturers. It gives a tight fit, but flexible because it takes on the natural shape of the foot.

· The material for uppers is also an advanced polyester yarn whose weave allows a single, seamless upper that gives greater tenacity. Combined with an injected outsole, this offers speed with lightweight comfort.

· There are insert foams which are shaped exactly like a wearer’s foot, giving a more comfortable fit. This is also a proprietary feature, like the molded tongues which add to the comfort fit in the said models.

Which positions should wear these sorts of cleats and why?

· Quarterbacks moving out of their traditional roles of making accurate passes are having to play the ball more. They need speed and agility, so these cleats are good for them.

· Running Back – where you must get out onto the field and outrun your opponent. They come in handy here as well

· Defensive Back – needs speed and traction

· Tight ends are players who can switch their roles between wide receiver and offensive lineman. Instant speed is required when the catch a pass.

What should a player do before a big game in preparation for it?

· Get a good eight hours of sleep the night before the game.

· Do not have a heavy meal at least a couple of hours before the game

· Mentally get into the week’s game a few days before, stay positive and talk to the coaching staff about strategies along with your teammates.

· On the day of the game, reach at least three hours before. Many players recommend reading the game-day program in detail to calm the mind! Get taped up per your needs with your favorite staff member, after any pregame massages or treatment you may need. Acupuncture works wonders at this last minute of preparation, for nagging pains and aches.

· Jogging round the field and making small cuts to test the cleats for traction and whether they are suited to the surface of the ground and soil conditions is a ritual most footballers can’t do without.

The Sweeps – The Cheapest Football Plays in Youth Football

The Sweep the «Holy Grail» Of Youth Football Plays

While the sweep is a legitimate football play at all levels, it is a play I personally detest in Youth Football. Too many youth football games are decided by one player on a play that often requires little team work or real execution, the sweep play. It sickens me to see poorly coached teams running sweep play after sweep play for touchdowns, coaches fists raised up in the air in triumph for what? For the fact that by the skillful feat of geography their youth football team just happened to have one very fast player signed up for their particular team. Wow that takes a lot of coaching skill and team effort, congrats. The facts are, once these one trick pony sweep teams play a well coached team, they will struggle.

In the last 6 seasons of running the defense in my book, our first team defense has given up just one sweep play of over 20 yards. Our defense is designed to take away the sweep, yet many of these one trick wonder sweep teams still try and run the play, even after running numerous sweeps for losses. It is really a quite simple play to shut down with the right scheme and one simple technique by your defensive ends. We have shut down the sweep cold, even when we had teams with little or no speed and played inner-city teams with exceptional speed.

On offense, the sweep and sweep pass are in our playbook and we run it as a lead play with pulling lineman and in a bucksweep fashion, ala Wing-T style with a plunge into the line fake (or keep) by the fullback. While the sweep has been a very successful football play for us, I rarely run it on offense.

In 2002 we ran 2-3 sweeps the entire season, my tailback was extremely slow (and small), so slow he would get caught from behind on off-tackle plays. He was all we had on a very talent short «B» team that still went 11-1. This previous year mind you this team had an incredible Tailback running out of the «I» formation, one of the best running backs in the history of the Sreaming Eagle program, of over 2,500 kids. This team was the biggest and most talented «B» team we had ever fielded and «coach» ran lots and lots of sweeps. Of course they blew out the weak teams, but lost to all the descent teams and finished a very disappointing 3-5. All but 8 of the kids from this team moved up the next year and what was left over was a team that was the youngest and smallest team in the league that year. I took this team over to prove a point, that size, age and speed really didn’t matter much. Hmmm 11-1 with a tailback that was slower than molasses and League Champs vs 3-5 with the best tailback our Org has ever seen, gee I wonder what the better approach was? To give you an idea of how wek this team really was, the following year in 2003 I coached the age 8-10 «A» team and just 2 of the kids from my 2002 team were good enough to be selected to play on this «A» squad. In 2002 we did run the bucksweep to our blocking back and scored 7 of the 8 times we ran it, due to the misdirection of the play and great perimeter execution, not the speed of our running back, (he was slow too).

In 2003 we did have one speedy running back that could get the corner, but we still ran the sweep just 25 times or so that season. If you see that season DVD, you see the sweep was there for the taking in many games and we knew it. I wanted our kids to work for our scores and for them to know we could run our base plays and score against any defense. I knew at seasons end this age 8-10 «Select» team was going to play the League Champions of an age 11-12 league in a huge Bowl Game and we would not be able to outrun them, so we prepared for the last game every week. My 2003 team went 11-0 and our first team offense scored on every possession of every single game we played that season, running very few sweeps.

In 2004 with an all rookie team that year, again with very little speed, we ran the sweep maybe 15 times in this season and went 11-0. In 2005 we had one tailback with some descent wheels, but we only ran about 25 sweeps in that 12-0 season. In 2006 with even very good speed saw us run the sweep just 30 times or so in an 11-1 season. With going no-huddle like we do and getting an average of 50+ snaps a game you can see how infrequently we use these sweep football plays.

The sweep out of the Single Wing Offense is a great play and offers great numbers advantages and angles, but my distaste for the play in conceptual terms means we do not run it even when it is obviously open. When we do run it, it is usually a very big play. By the time we finally do run it, the defense is usually pinching and it is a big gainer. We execute excellent seal blocks at the point of attack as well as require our pullers to get downfield with correct helmet placement. However, if we are playing a weak team and are dominating or obviously have more speed than the other team, you won’t see the play very much from us. If we are ahead by a score or two you won’t see the sweep at all from us. We gain little long term progress from taking the sweep in either scenario.

Last season the head of an organization that often has very fast players, but very marginal coaching told me at the end of the season «In youth football, it just comes down to that one fast kid». That is the epitome of what’s wrong with youth football coaching and why I detest the sweep so much. I’ve never lost to this organization or even had a close game with them for that matter. Even when they have great teams with huge size and speed advantages they won’t play us in extra games. Why? Because even with much smaller and slower players, we shut their offense down cold and it’s frustrating and embarrassing for them to do so poorly against a physically inferior team.

Don’t get beat by sweep plays and don’t make it the base of your offense. It’s like a 300 pound bully taking candy away from a 4 year old girl, it takes zero effort or skill. But when you try and take candy away from another 300 pound bully or even a 350 pound bully, and you depend on the sweep, you will get your brains beaten in. That’s why you often see teams blow past all the teams in their league by big margins, but go off to an out of town playoff or Bowl game and get blown out. Why? Because eventually that sweep happy team will run into a team that has as much speed as the one trick pony player they have or has a scheme like ours that shuts down the sweep. Good teams beat good teams, a good player doesn’t beat a good team or a well coached team in youth football. A good player only beats very weak or very poorly coached teams in youth football.

High School Football – Plays For Scholarships

American professional football has its origins in college football. It remains extremely popular today among students, alumni, and other fans of the sport. Many students who participate in high school football playoffs later join tryouts in football recruiting. Some exceptional students have enough talent to attract the attention of recruiting coaches after making exceptional plays in high school football playoffs.

There are many plays in football, one of them being the forward pass. There were many teams that attempted the forward pass in various plays for 30 years before it was actually made legal. Apparently it had been played effectively but in an illegal manner. E. B. Cochems, a coach employed by Saint Louis University from 1906 through 1908, was the first to utilize a proper, legal forward pass. On September 5, 1906, player Bradbury Robinson passed the ball to his team mate Jack Schneider in a game held at Carroll College, Wisconsin. St. Louis eventually won the game, scoring 22-0.

The beginning a forward pass being played is important to a football game. As the passer’s arm starts to move forward, the forward pass is marked and officially put into play. If the player drops the ball before this, the play is called a fumble, resulting in a loose ball. In this situation anybody from both teams can gain possession of the ball before or after it comes in contact with the ground. In Canadian football, if the offensive player drops the ball as his arm is moving forward, it is considered as an incomplete pass. If another player catches the ball before it hits the ground, it is called a completed pass or an interception. In American football, when the quarterback attempts to bring the ball back to his body once a passing motion has been made, a lost ball may be considered an incomplete pass even though the quarterback’s arm is still moving backward at the time. This in known as the tuck rule.

With all the talented students involved in pursuing a college degree, football recruiting remains a significant activity for students and colleges alike. Some exceptional students have enough talent to attract the attention of football recruiting coaches while still in high school. Others, however, need to make extra effort in order to get ahead in the process. Getting public exposure is a key factor in succeeding in the recruitment process. D1Athletes is an online community wherein athletes and coaches alike can share and exchange information about subjects such as high school football playoffs. D1Athletes offers them a place to build an online presence and gain important public exposure.

How To Put on a Successful Youth Football Camp

Football Camps For Youth Football Players

We do a one day camp in June or July. We have done week long and three day camps but now just do one day camps. Our goals for these pre-season camps are just to get a peek at what we have talent wise, get the kids to understand how they are to interact with the coaching staff and to have fun. We have an entire month to prepare for our first game, we can get any conditioning we need during regular football practice.

Conditioning this far out from the first practice and for such a short duration is counterproductive to what we are trying to accomplish during the camp. We feel very strongly that with the very narrowly defined football practice priorities we adhere to, we can get our evaluations, base skills and schemes put in during the one month of football practices prior to that first game. We found much of what the kids learned in these football camps was forgotten once we started in August and often the kids were playing different positions, once the teams were optimized. We don’t put in any of our football plays or playbook in during these camps.

We found anything longer than 2 hours in one day was counterproductive, even for the older kids. We rarely got much out of the kids once we hit that 2 hour brick wall,especially if it was hot. We don’t go over 1 ½ hours for the kids under age 8.

We always bring in at least one NFL player in to do a little talk at the end of the Football Camp. We have also called the Nebraska Cornhuskers and got players to attend from their FCA group, most University teams are happy to accommodate you, all you have to do is ask. The NFL guys can often get NFL money to pay for caps, t-shirts and food, every time we invited a local NFL guy they did this for us. All they ask you to do is to organize the camp, get the kids there and do a press release to get the media there.

Our format has changed quite a bit, but this is the one we use now:

Group Dynamic Warm Ups

Group Stance and Starts/Cadence

Mini Group Fun Competitions/Evaluations: This is where we do all of our fun team evaluation

games/drills detailed starting on page 69 of the book. This gets the kids pumped up and enthused about being at your camp and playing for your team and tells us what we have and where most of the kids will play.

Skill Development Stations (No conditioning or frappy agility drills)

Team Hawaiian Rules Football- On page 80 of the book.

When finished with the clinic the kids understand how they are required to interact with the coaches. As coaches we have a real good idea of the athleticism of our team in general and where 80-90% of our starters will be playing. The kids have fun and get a clear understanding that playing football for us can be both fun and rewarding if they follow a few simple directions that we will hold them accountable to. We often get more kids to join our program after the camp as parents and kids get very enthusiastic about how fun and well organized our practices are and often invite their friends to play for us.

Our youth football league has no restrictions on these type of activities, check your league for any restrictions and abide by them.

The Allure of Texas High School Football

Even if you’ve never been to a Texas high school football game, you probably know that these games and the fans who follow them are somewhat different than other high school football games and fans. In Texas, football isn’t a sport and it isn’t an extra-curricular activity. No, it’s almost been elevated to the level of a religion. To say that Texas high school football fans are passionate about the spot would be an understatement; a huge understatement.

Friday Night Lights may have been first a popular book and then a film but it all started with the true story of one season with the Odessa Permian Panthers. Hollywood didn’t need to pump up the real life story of this Texas high school team with fabrication; the real story was already enough of a legend to carry it all the way to the silver screen.

If you think you know high school football, you haven’t seen anything until you’ve seen it from the Lone Star State. Even the smaller schools really get involved. It’s not uncommon to see entire caravans traveling the Texas highways on Friday nights; the football team, drill team, cheerleaders, marching band and sponsor. All of that can easily require a dozen buses or so. And that’s not even including the hordes of parents and fans that travel right along with them. In relatively few other events will you see devoted fans travel hundreds of miles for a playoff game; and keep in mind that in Texas that’s entirely possible. The border from east to west stretches almost one thousand miles.

So, what is it exactly about Texas high school football in particular that seems to appeal to such a mass audience? While there may be no definitive answer for that question, there is definitely one certainty: nothing else on earth has quite the same intensity and passion to it. You can feel it reverberating in the air when you step into any high school football stadium throughout the state.

High school football fans in Texas are not just passionate about football; they live it and breathe it. On any given Friday night during football season in Texas you’re likely to see just about as much violence in the stands as you are on the turf if one fan happens to aggravate another.

And that’s not even mentioning the rivalry that can take place between teams in Texas. While it’s not uncommon at all for neighboring towns throughout the country to form high school football rivalries, Texans take it to a whole new level. In many cases, extra policeman have to be called out during big rival games just to keep the peace among the crowd. In a few instances, some towns had to stop even playing one another at all because of the violence that ensued between fans in the stands and on the sidelines during rival games.

The exact allure of Texas high school football may be somewhat difficult to describe, but one thing is certain: you feel it when you experience it.

If the rest of the world loves soccer, Texans love football.

Revitalizing High School Sports – Playing Football

Drive Block

Driving and blocking are the bases for a good lineman. Hence the name for the most common drive: the drive block. This drive block means that you are going to push the opponent in the direction that they are aligned. It starts with the lineup, when you are facing your opponent notice which way they are aligned, if they are off to the right then you will drive them to the right if the play is occurring on the left side of the field. Execute the drive by bolting off the line with your play side foot; again if the play is happening on the left side then you will use your left foot. Bring the other foot up quickly and make a solid contact for your drive.

Up Downs Conditioning Drill

Out of all of the football conditioning drills up downs are one of the most popular. This drill starts by having the players run in place as fast as they can encourage them to get their knees up as high as they can. At the coaches signal the players will drop to the ground and do a push up, and then quickly get back up and start running again. This drill is an excellent workout and should be worked in slowly at first and then increased in intensity and length over time.

Conditioning: The Quick Jump

Reaction is a skill that players need to develop through conditioning and drills. This practice drill is intended to increase reaction speed and the ability to quickly change directions. It starts by placing players in a small four square box. Then the player will proceed to jump from on area or box to another, thus forcing the player to jump laterally, diagonally, frontwards, and backwards. Changes can be made so that the player will only use one foot and then the other while they run the drill.

Catching the ball low

Making the plays means that you have practiced the less than optimal situation and know how to react to them. One situation that most offensive players will face is the low catch. One not so perfect scenario is a low passed catch. Here are some basics to a great low catch. First, keep your hands low and lock your pinkies. Second, keep your knees bent low and in extreme cases you should be flat on the ground or diving. Second, bend your knees and get low. Use your hands and not your body. Never use your body to catch a football. Last, concentrate on catching it first and then worry about the defense, and scoring some more yards.

Should Girls Be Playing Youth Football? NO

Should Girls be Playing Youth Football?

This may be a bit of a controversial subject for some but in the society we live in the answer should be a resounding no!

Do some girls have the size and aggressiveness to play youth football? Absolutely, I see sisters of my players that would make excellent football players, but I’m not sure it would be the best for the girl or the boys on our youth football team.

Today’s society seems to want to devalue women, rap music with its demeaning depiction of women as throw aways and worthy of abuse, TV and movies that depict women as abuse worthy sex objects and the same with the print media and the mainstreaming of pornography.

In inner-city Omaha nearly 70% of our players have no man in the home. If you think I’m exaggerating, we have had games with 2 people in the stands and both were females, not enough for a chain crew. This was not a one time deal, we have had many games where we did not have 3 males to run the chains. Many of our players have no model of behavior in the house to «copy» of how to properly treat a woman. The kids often see first hand women being physically and mentally abused and of course they hear it in the music they listen to, on TV and in print. I’ve been coaching youth football for 15 years and the «dadless» house problem is getting worse every year. Tom Osborne in his book «Faith in the Game» claims this problem is increasing and is responsible for the majority of crime and problems with young males.

If we let girls play tackle football with boys, we teach the boys that harsh physical contact with females is acceptable behavior. In fact as coaches we would have to encourage and reward this physical contact. Our players would get in the habit and be used to being physical with females, the act would desensitize everyone involved in the activity of physical force being applied to females by males. The female in the meantime is learning that harsh physical contact with males is acceptable, it is now a habit. Now while having females on your team may help the short term progress of some of our football teams I’m not sure we are helping either the boy or the girl in their long term development as productive members of our society.

Girls are as good as and even better at boys at many activities, this is not about the girls having the ability to play. This is about breaking the abusive cycle many single parent families or even two parent families are in today. In my mind, coaching youth football is much more than teaching kids how to run good football plays and how to block and tackle. It is about teaching valuable life lessons the youth football player can take with him for use in his entire lifetime. My dad taught me how to treat women with reverence and respect and I was rewarded for that behavior with a wonderful wife and very satisfying family life. Dad not only told me, he showed me, even when him and mom had disagreements, they never got loud or physical. He modeled the proper behavior every day, many of our kids NEVER see that proper behavior being modeled for them. As a boy, we were threatened that hitting a girl or even pushing one was «mortal sin» material that could never happen. If it did happen, I would be dealt with by my father in the most extreme severe way, in addition it was also deemed cowardly.

In 2001 we had an 8 year old football player of one of our Omaha teams strike a girl in the face with his fist over some type of disagreement in the playground area of our field. Of course we spoke to the boy and let him know he should never strike a woman and dismissed him from our program with the promise he could come back the next year if we saw significant improvement in his attitude and actions. We felt he needed the program and contact with strong male role models. The player had to attend every practice and the games and watch, not play. We persuaded the parents of the struck girl not to press formal charges. Beleive it or not the striking players «grandpa» argued the kids case and said the girl «pushed him first». That made me ill, the poor kid has no dad in the house and a «grandpa» that thinks it’s OK to hit girls in the face that push you first. No wonder his daughter had no man in the house. I wanted to smack grandpa in the face but thought that would not be the right message for the boy to see either. We really worked this kid, but I have feel there is a very high probability this player will be a woman user/abuser when he gets older and will have a very unsatisfying family life. While the grandson did come back, grandpa was not invited to coach again for us.

I’m never going to allow females to play in my youth football program. I don’t want our football players life lessons and memories to include when our stud linebacker knocked the stuffings out of a girl running back who had snot bubbles and tears streaming down her face.

However, some people will bite the hand that feeds it. In our rural program we have had no female football sign ups. In Omaha we have had a few moms try and sign their daughters up for football. After the initial disappointment wore off and the mom was told why we think it makes sense in the long run for females not to play, the moms were very supportive. I can think of just one case where mom didn’t «get it» and pulled her son out of the program because we would not allow her daughter to be pummeled by boys on our team. I can still see her today, a single mom with 3 kids that needed the program who refused to listen to reason. This mom had two missing front teeth, probably caused by the same cycle we were trying to help break.

Today we have tackle football and even wrestling between boys and girls, whats next boxing? or how about ultimate fighting? Where do we draw the line? If gilrs are as good as boys in football, why not boxing? Why not wrestiling? Why not Ultimatre Fighting?

There are some that don’t care about the long term implications for both parties, they just have a selfish desire to see their children excel, no matter the cost. I cringe at what’s in store for that poor girl.

Let’s draw the line at tackle football.

Riddell Football Helmets – The Football Favorite

The head is one of the most crucial parts of the body. This is where our brain is lodged and as we all know, the brain allows for all proper body functions to follow suit. The worst that can happen when the brain is damaged is that motor functions will be affected such as walking and even eating. A person can risk losing permanent control of his motor system if it happens that he accidentally damages his brain. This is the reason why people always make it a point to have some protection on their heads especially when undergoing rigorous activities.

One of the most rigorous activities known to people is American football. Just thinking of the hard packed action brought about by tackling is more than enough to consider that sport as rigorous. It really is something that only tough people can handle. However, despite people being tough and all to be able to play American football, there still remains the fact that the head can only be as tough as a person’s skull can provide protection for it. Thus, football helmets are deemed extremely necessary. Regardless of how talented and how skilled a player is in football, without a helmet he would still be not allowed to enter the game field.

Riddell football helmets capitalize the innovation and uniqueness of its football designs. Above all else, this particular football helmet banks on its capacity to be able to protect the toughest players during the toughest football games.

An example of this is the recent effect of some new results found out about head injuries. Spearheaded by the charities of NFL, it was discovered that majority of the head concussions which players can possibly experience while playing football are actually caused by side impacts on the head. The usual notion was that the top or front of the head is the sensitive part when it comes to head concussions. From these substantial results, Riddell football helmets have developed a new line of products in the hopes of providing upgraded protection to football players.

The newest product which Riddell football helmets came out with is the RevolutionT. This particular helmet is developed to particularly minimize the risks involved in becoming a victim of head concussions. The helmet has been systematically designed via a computer and the structural changes are noteworthy of this helmet in the past 25 years of football playing.
