Over the last 10 years, participation in high school football has declined by about 10%. That’s why the National Federation of State High School Associations (NFHS), in partnership with the NFL, is promoting the lasting benefits that high school football has on students for the rest of their lives.

We have three goals:

1. Promote the value of participating in football in middle school and high school.
2. Improve the perception of football at the middle school and high school levels.
3. Restore confidence that the sport is more focused on player protection than ever before.

With your help, we can spread the word about the benefits of participating in high school football and celebrate this essential team sport for decades to come.
