Yeeticus Posted August 31, 2017 Report Share Posted August 31, 2017 Hi I know cliche question, but everyone in my school has come up and told me to play football. I like the sport but I'm worried that I won't make the cut. I'm 6'3 and 300 pounds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ron169 Posted August 31, 2017 Report Share Posted August 31, 2017 It's not as much the weight as it is the muscle underneath. What are your weight lifting numbers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You won't know unless you try. Everyone's afraid of failure. You gotta fight hard against that fear. Now's the time. Coming from an old guy, your life will go better for you overall if you do. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Football is a great game in that if you show up, bring a good attitude and work hard every day, most coaches will respect and appreciate that more than you can know (kids like that are usually why coaches want to be coaches in the first place), and there will be a spot for you on almost any high school football team. Along the way you will learn something about yourself -- that you are capable of much more than you thought possible, discover that there are many ways to contribute -- even if you aren't the star, and you will more than likely form new friendships as there is something about collective effort and struggle that brings us together -- and often those bonds can and do last a lifetime. There are so many life lessons to be gained through sport (not just football) -- One of them is just the plain old satisfaction one gains from working hard and becoming better than when you started. If you get just that out of the experience, you've already won no matter what the scoreboard reads. Good luck, have fun, and keep us posted. We'll be here rooting for you. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't worry about not making the cut. Do your best and you will be fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1DayPGA Posted August 31, 2017 Report Share Posted August 31, 2017 How old are you? Are you going out for the Frosh, JV, or Varsity? Being that it is nearly Sept. weren't tryouts quite a while ago, so are you talking about this year or next year? If your talking about this year and you've never played organized football before you have a lot of ground to make up but If the coaches are willing to give you a tryout then go for it.
