Football teaches the X's and O's of LIFE

Football starts as a fun game to play with friends.

What it becomes is a POWERFUL source of life lessons.

Like leadership and loyalty. Adaptability and accountability. Resilience and respect. And so much more!

What parent wouldn’t want their student to learn these lessons—especially in an environment where they’ll feel like they belong, they’ll be mentored by coaches who care and they’ll make memories that will last a lifetime?

Talk to your school’s athletic director or football coach about how your student can support the team.

Be sure to use the hashtag #ThisIsHSFootball whenever you share stories and photos about football on social media!
