From my own school years, wish I never would have played football... Dad told me about the injury thing but of course I didn't listen..... So after blowing out a knee my junior year and having to skip baseball (at the time my #1 sport) I wish I would have listened.... But, you can get hurt crossing the street, too. Kind of a case of setting priorities IMO.... One good injury in football could kill any future scholarships for other more traditional girls sports.......Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, Live for Today!

Injuries happen in sports. I never did the school football thing - was plenty big enough, was harassed by the coach to do it but was far more interested in -----cars!!! (and girls). I had to wait until I started skiing to wreck my knee and shoulder
My son couldn't play HS football as he had a severe case of mono. He recovered went on to college and was a walk on for the teams and became a starter at both the 2 year Jr college as well as the regular 4 year university. He never got more the the normal bruises - but was/is big at 6'3" and about 220. He finally had a bad sports injury - water skiing at age 35 - he broke his hip!!
My opinion, FWIW, if they are physically big enough - skeletal structure and muscles - and well coached, especially important, then at least let them give it a chanceDave W
I am now gone from this forum for now - finally have pulled the plug
Sorry for your loss of friend Mike McGee, Shine. Great trans men are few and far between, it seems. Sadly, Mike Frade was only 66 and had been talking about retirement for ten years that I know...
