High school football

I’m a friend of a very talented football player. High school football. I think football is a good and safe sport to play. If it’s played the right way. In my essay I will describe some ways on how football is a safe and fun sport. And also a good learning experience. For one, football could be all my friend has to look forward too. What if he never liked school, always got bad grades and never even went to class? His introduction to football saved him and his education. Knowing that he could only play football if he had good grades, went ot every practice, and every class. He put his all into it, and now has good grades and is pretty good at playing football.

The whistle is blown and the ball sent soaring through the air, and the game begins. Every football game begins this way, but in big games like a state championship…

High School football is something that can’t be just described in just a couple of words. When you go to a High School football game in Texas you can see faithful supporters filling the stands which are waving their hands and homemade signs in support of their team.
