Why People Shouldn T Play Football In High School

My whole life I’ve been playing football and also watching football. To me football has been the best thing that has happened to my life. I love it so much, just how the game works with all the pieces that come together. Playing football gives you a better understanding of the game. I’ve played football for 8 years, throughout those years; my knowledge of the game has increased so much. Playing the sport really helps you compare yourself to them and gives you a better understanding on why penalties happen. Now in recent years football has taken a big turn in player safety. I feel that player safety is important but still is ruining the game. The public affected it big time. There are many rules of what you can and can’t do. Some are;

I think that kids shouldn't play football because it is too dangerous. People get concussions every day when they play football. After repeatedly bashing their skulls football players get concussions, caused by the spongy tissue in the brain hitting the hard skull. It is very painful to get a concussion, and leaves permanent damage to the brain. As well as being excruciatingly painful, and possibly never being the same, with many issues. "In milder cases, athletes can be left with lifelong pain, memory lapses, aggression, depression, personality changes, and many other issues."(Shotz[11]). This sport just keeps getting more and more dangerous, manifesting on itself, becoming more and more brutal as players become more competitive. There are

This paper explores published articles that report on results from research conducted on this disadvantages of high school football. The articles vary in information and research conducted and have different argumentative points of discussion. This paper examines and states that high school football should be banned. Reasons are shown through different points of argument. Football causes continuous concussions, causes long term medical problems and causes different types of trauma to their body and affects their overall health.

Football, ever since it began, has had the constant question of should it be banned. Footballs origins began back in ancient Greece where even then it was known as a very rough and brutal game. When football came to England it was thought to be so rough that kings Henry II and Henry IV both actually banned it. A lot has changed since those times in history. We now have equipment for the game and every year the equipment keeps evolving into a more safety conscious design for the player. Rules for the game also keep changing throughout the years with the player’s safety in mind as well. Because of these changes, it has

What is Football? Football is a brutal sport that can have lifelong consequences. It’s dangerous and overrated. It has become a business that is only concerned about winning at the cost of maiming players, but people love it. Football players suffer more concussions than athletes in any other high school sport. Is this beloved game worth the risks, or should schools do away with it? We shouldn’t let teens ruin their lungs with cigarettes, so why would we allow them to damage their brains in the name of football? I have never played the sport, but I have friends that play and they’re always injured in some way. It’s just pointless. High school football players can undergo significant brain changes after just one season, even if they don’t get

The game of football is being attacked. We see it every day in the headlines and on the news. The medical concerns are obvious. The game has taken more than its share of criticism. Even President Barack Obama said that if he had boys he wouldn’t let them play football. LeBron James publicly said no football in his house. So the question is asked all the time, Why would anyone want to play football? And why would anyone let their kids play? Here’s my answer. I believe there’s practically no other place where a boy is held to a higher standard then football. Football is hard, it’s tough, it demands discipline, it teaches obedience, it builds character. Football is a metaphor for life.

In the article, “It’s Time To Ban High School Football” published in the Chicago Tribune on August 29, 2012, authored by Ken Reed, who has held varied positions throughout the sports spectrum, he has a Doctorate in Sports Management as well as many other accolades and is a strong advocate for quality physical education and sport safety; Reed has effectively used logical and emotional appeals to plead his case that football should be banned in high school. He makes the claim that concussions caused by violent collisions are far too dangerous on the brain and that the lessons taught on the grid-iron can be learned in

People often disregard the many physical dangers and injuries of high school football by saying many things the average human does in their everyday lives posses the same dangers such as driving. While this is indeed true, the claim is completely irrelevant and irresponsible

Football is a sport that I wouldn't allow my son to play. Football is a hard and dangerous sport to allow your son to play. This sport promotes too much violence and can lead to concussions. Players can be hurt because there are tough players out in the field. Football players are tough and rough out there on the field. They can be rough and tough to go up against. The weakest players out their get hurt. “I had concussions as a kid playing football and basketball, and know what it” feels like and to have someone say 'Just rub some dirt on it, and get back in their.” - Billy Corgan.

However with all of these facts being told about how high school football should be banned most people might think banning football is a bad thing when really banning football is to just save peoples lives.We have just showed you some of the deaths remember I said “some”meaning that their is still more deaths that have happened but it would be to much deaths to cover and talking about deaths really isn’t all that exciting.Football should be banned for all the hurt high schoolers or even the dead high schooler,and they never deserved this even if they wanted to join football the high schoolers didn’t know that this could happen to them.All these deaths weren’t all just the high schoolers family it was also doctors,news reporters, and even teachers,”These deaths weren’t….Intentional...It was simply a sport wanting to be play by these passionate kids, but their dream turned into a nightmare.These special kids just wanted to have fun...If these kids knew that football could be like this than they would’ve never joined football but that's not the case here.”However football won’t really end since it is such a popular sport to lots of other high schoolers.Football should come to a end soon due to it's deaths i'm not talking about the NFL i'm talking about the high school football.One point to another more people are gonna start feeling the pain that other parents or relatives that have felt the pain due to football,but if it's not a family member or relative than you would still feel

Football is a rough sport. Many fans of the game watch it for the hard hits. These hard hits and the potential for injury is part of what makes the game so exciting. Some people say that football is too brutal and should be banned. Parents all over the United States don’t allow their children to play because of the risk of head injuries. Others allow their sons, and every now and then their daughters, to play and risk injury for a chance to earn a college scholarship and for a small percentage of players, the chance to play in the National Football League (NFL).

The beloved American sport that consists of tackling others to the ground and trying to make a touchdown to lead the team to victory has become too dangerous to play. We let our children play the risky sport at a young age and think it is just for fun. Meanwhile, they are falling in love with the game and soon will develop dreams of playing in the big league. At that point it is too late, just as some families were too late when their football player get a concussion on the field, grow old with Alzheimer's disease, or even CTE, the chronic traumatic encephalopathy. Although America is aware of the issue, the sport is continuing to ruin lives.

The American sport of football is fading. Numbers in the sport are slowly lowering. For many reasons, injuries are the leading one. The problem is, if there are no high school players there are no college players. If there are no college players then there are no professional players.

Danger comes with any sport no matter how rough or mild. Every person knows the risks involving sports. Concussions are a problem but, they are not a large enough danger to shut high school football down. Critics are saying that high school football is to dangerous, but what is dangerous? Everyday, people do things like driving or walking across the street, yet everyone does these things everyday. Driving has regulations to ensure the safety of everyone involved, as does footbal. Precautions are made in order to keep the people safe. These regulations and rules help teens grow not only as athletes but as better people. These sports give teens a mean of escape from everyday life. These sports also help kids strategize the next game plan. These teens who are strategizing now, could be making the new breakthroughs in football regulations in the future.

Football is often labeled as a dangerous, unsafe sport, but there are many good things that come along with playing football. In the past two weeks I have learned about the risks that accompany football. Many kids suffer with concussions and face injuries from the sport, which scares many people away. But, despite the risks and the unsafe label, I would allow my child to play football because it promotes health, builds friendships, and helps gain toughness.
