looking to allow it because it's already in practice throughout the SEC states.
It says something about the culture, priority, and emphasis to have high school spring football. Does it exist in the Midwest or east coast?
didn't have it in MN, did have it in AZ and in CO we have some form of it (some teams use it late spring, some early summer).
I was surprised to learn about spring football for HS. Apparently it is common in HS in Alabama.
Most HS athletes have a weight lifting PE class throughout the school year. This is for all sports, or just football.
they actually have options...if you don't do Spring Football you get to start fall practice earlier than teams who do Spring Football.
But we also have an extensive big time 7x7 program for the summer, not UIL sanctioned but legal and leads to a state championship.
Year round competition or offseason conditioning is common. It is hard for kids to play more than one sport. Coaches demand participation in offseason workouts.
