rom backyards to parks to community stadiums across the United States, kids are playing football. Whether tossing the ball with dad, in a pickup game with friends or as part of organized leagues, children are having fun, improving their skills and staying t as they enjoy Americas favorite sport. Approximately 3 million U.S. children play in organized tackle football leagues, making football among the countrys most popular youth sports. The appropriate age for a child to start playing tackle football differs from league to league and family to family. For many youths, a season or a few years of ag football helps
build the fundamentals needed to play the tackle game. For others, remaining with ag football all the way through high school is the right choice. As long as a player is having fun and learning the game, the transition to tackle is one that parents can decide when its right for their child. Flag football teaches coordination and the basic fundamentals of the game, said Ray Delgado, who has coached both tackle and ag football in the Los Angeles area for the past 14
years. Flag can be a good stepping stone to tackle in that it helps a child develop physically and mentally. Even though ag football is not a physical sport, it gets kids in strong physical shape and ready to run. The hand-eye coordination and endurance in ag football transition naturally to the tackle game, Delgado said. Condence carries over, too, and that is a big part of knowing when a child is ready to don a helmet and shoulder pads. Its more of a mental jump from ag to tackle,
Delgado said. Its a big plus if the kid is bigger, but condence can overcome anything, and ag football helps build that. Anne Pankhurst is a sport development consultant and a member of USA Footballs Football and Wellness Committee. She specializes in age-specic athlete development programs in the U.S. and United Kingdom. She said football at the ag level teaches teamwork, how to change direction while running and how to follow directions skills vital to the tackle game. By learning these abilities before the physical nature of tackle football, players can have an easier time adapting. Playing ag football also introduces young athletes to the rules and objectives of the game. In the same way, parental fears about their young child playing tackle football could be eased with a season or two in ag. Many parents assume every kid will be capable of doing well because they are big or strong or talented enough, Pankhurst said. Some children arent ready. Some dont want to. Some are playing just because their parents signed them up or their friends are playing. A younger child could be better served starting out in ag football or remaining in ag football even when old enough to play tackle. In the same way, after a few years of ag, a mother or father might be ready to let their child play tackle because they learn more about the game through ag. Most ag football leagues have ve players on each side, so it gives each player more of a chance to handle the ball. This direct involvement with play can keep a young player interested and encouraged about the game, said David Fried, a former high school football coach who has run NFL FLAG leagues in the Miami area
Flag football offers a non-contact option for young athletes getting their rst taste of the game and for parents who might not be ready to put their child in tackle football
for 11 years. Tackle football is the most incredible sport in the world, but its not for everyone, Fried said. In tackle, you are more accountable to the player next to you, and you have more responsibility especially those without the ball. In ag, you concentrate on basic fundamentals that help you later. Delgado said benets of ag football extend to potential linemen as well positions not often associated with the more wide-
open game. The footwork you learn and coordination you gain in ag helps linemen as much as anyone, Delgado said. Ive had players who are guards or tackles during the tackle season come play a season of ag football with me, and they end up as tight ends because they learn to catch better and play in open spaces. In the end, it is each parents choice where their child will play. Some will be ready for the tackle game right away. Some are drawn to ag. Experience leads to condence, and condence puts a moms mind at ease when it comes to letting her child play tackle football, Delgado said. Parents want to see their child progress from not knowing how to play the game to being able to carry themselves on the football eld. How they get there isnt as important as the route the journey took.

ver since I could walk I have played football. My dad still walks me to my bus stop every day, and we play catch on the way. My room is painted purple and gold because I am a big Minnesota Vikings fan. My dad and I often go to a local restaurant on Sundays so we can watch Vikings games here in Atlanta. When I was 10 we went to the Vikings training camp. It was pretty neat seeing all the players up close. I love catching passes and running away from guys bigger than me. I also like to kick and punt. When I was 7 or 8 years old I played ag
football when I lived in Philadelphia. We played on a full eld, and I remember how big it seemed to me. I would run back and forth until I found a hole I could run through.
This is when I realized I was faster than most of the other kids. When I was 10 I got to meet Joe Montana (top left), Peyton Manning (top center) and Deion Branch at a collectors show with my dad. I remember thinking that Deion Branch wasnt very big and that if he could play in the NFL then I could
also. A lot of people compare me to Wes Welker, a wide receiver for the New England Patriots. Last year, my eighth-grade team won the middle school state championship in Georgia. I had a lot of fun playing on this team. My coaches played in the NFL and used me in many different positions. I got to play QB, RB, WR, DE and DB. I also punted and kicked. Playing on the U.S. Under-15 National Team is a great honor and one that I am excited to be part of. I cant wait to have Merril Hoge as my head coach. It will be a lot of fun meeting kids from the other countries. I just hope some of them speak English so I can talk football with them. If not, well just play catch.

wight Freeney did not grow up a superstar. In fact, the Indianapolis Colts defensive end did not even grow up playing football. According to his mother, Joy Freeney, when young Dwight wasnt playing video games, his interests were baseball, basketball, music and science. Joy recently talked to USA Football Magazine to discuss what her famous NFL son was like as a youngster in Connecticut. She remembers a child who was always active, always trying to be the best and never afraid to try something new. ON SPORTS: Dwight liked to play baseball, basketball, soccer and miniature golf. His mother, a native of Jamaica, would not let him play hockey. He wanted to but I told him the only thing we use ice for in Jamaica is to keep our drinks cold, Joy said. Baseball was Dwights favorite. Basketball might have been if he could stay on the court longer in games. He loved basketball, but he always fouled out, Joy said.
USA Football Magazine
ON VIDEO GAMES: The Freeney house was where neighborhood kids gathered for tournaments. Dwight did not like to lose. He was very competitive with his friends, Joy said. Whether it was Madden football, baseball, basketball or another game, hed play and play to get better. ON GROWING: Dwight was always among the tallest kids in his class, but he measured himself against the older kids in the neighborhood, Joy said. He had a good friend who was really tall, and Dwight never believed he was growing because he was always shorter than that boy. I told him, Hes growing, too. We had to measure Dwight against a post to prove it. ON MUSIC: Dwight played the trombone and piano. He enjoyed that as much as sports. His rst recital, we had to leave in the middle of a baseball game to get there in time, Joy said. ON SCHOOL: Dwights favorite subject was science. He took part in a University of Connecticut engineering program for children.

Jennifer Blum, a member of the 201 0 U.S. Womens National Team and wide receiver for the New York Sha rks professional football team, urges girls to give football a try. Its a fun way to exercise. Its a blast, she says. To help her squad win, each player must complete a separate task dur ing a play. That builds camaraderie and promotes life lessons. Its the ultim ate team game, Blum says. Football has multiple positions. Theres so many different options , Blum says. Theres a place for everybody.
ennifer Blum was jealous. She remembers watching her best friend getting on the team bus with his high school football teammates. It was so unfair, she said. I couldnt play. Today, there are more opportunities for girls to play football not only on the high school level but also at a much earlier age. Football being just for the guys? Thats no longer the case, Blum said. As a young girl, Jennifer Blum used to sleep with a football. Blum, now 37, remains attached to the game. During the day, she is a lawyer in River Edge, N.J. At night, she plays ag football and for the New York Sharks, a womens professional tackle team. A member of the 2010
U.S. Womens National Team that won a gold medal at the Womens World Championship, Blum also instructs aspiring players in the game she loves.
At events such as NFL Play 60 and New York Sharks camps, Blum helps girls learn footballs team- and goaldriven concepts. On each successful play, every player must execute her
unique role. Football is special to Blum because every girl can nd her niche. If you like to catch, become a wide receiver. If you have a strong leg, focus on kicking. Whether in ag football or tackle, there is a spot for you. Everybody can nd a place that theyre good at, that they like and that they can excel at, Blum said. Thats the beauty of football. Attitudes toward football have come a long way since Blum encountered resistance and stereotypes growing up. Faced with those challenges, Blum says keep pushing to become better while absorbing all available instruction. Take in everything you can, she said. Dont worry about whats happening next to you. Whether its tackle or ag, Blum encourages girls to give it a try.

yan Mathews looks for every edge he can get on the football eld. A 6-foot, 218-pound running back for the San Diego Chargers, he ran for 678 yards and seven touchdowns as a rookie last season. Mathews recently joined with Shock Doctor the ofcial mouth guard partner of USA Football and U.S. National Teams to promote the companys Custom Mouthguard and Ultra Carbon Chin Strap, which he will wear at practice and in games this season. Mathews discussed the importance of mouth guards and his new partnership with Shock Doctor along with growing up, vacation spots, favorite foods and more. Whats your favorite meal? I love orange chicken. My favorite spot is a little hole in the wall in Bakerseld (Calif.). Who was a key inuencer in your life? My mom. She is strong, brilliant and comforting. She is my rock. Without her encouragement and love, I do not think I would be the young adult I am today. How do you personalize your mouth guard? I have the phrase Catch 24 on my mouth guard. I am one step from a big play every time the ball is in my hand. I feel like every member of the defense is always chasing me.
What do you like to do in your free time? I love being outside, sitting in the ocean catching a wave, standing on the back of my boat in the water, sitting in the snow or smelling the dirt at the race track. If you werent playing professional football, what would you be doing? If I were not blessed with the ability to play in the NFL, Id race professional motocross or ride snowboards. When did you start to realize you had the potential to be a pro football player? It was always a dream, but I didnt understand how good I could be until my second year in college.
Wheres your favorite place to vacation? Being as young as I am, I havent had the chance to travel the world like some of the people I know. As of right now my favorite place to go is home. Bakerseld and Fresno are where my heart is and where I most enjoy going to. Why do you like Shock Doctors mouth guards? Ive used Shock Doctor mouthguards for as long as I can remember. I used them in basketball and football, too. Shock Doctors Custom Mouthguard is so comfortable that it feels like I dont have a mouth guard in there, and it really makes breathing and speaking a lot easier while not compromising protection.

ollecting football cards can be intimidating at rst. Thats why its important to set goals and limits when you start. A good rule of thumb is to collect players and teams you like. That way, even if they dont gain in value, youll always like the cards you have. Here are some tips to get you on your way to a fun time collecting and trading football cards. GETTING STARTED: A single pack of cards can range from 99 cents all the way up to $500. The bigger the buy-in, the better your chance for a valuable card. These include whats called insert cards, items that look a little different and often include an autograph or special markings. Because packs are random there is never a guarantee the one you are buying holds a rare card. Its simply the luck of the draw. If you cant nd a hobby shop or card-collecting store near you, another way to get started is by visiting Upper Decks online store. ROOKIE CARDS: Before insert cards gained in popularity, many collectors sought the rookie cards of certain players. Investors saw this as a way to capitalize on young players they hoped would blossom into Hall-ofFame performers. A cards value is simple the better the player, the larger his popularity, the more the card is often worth. How rare it is and the condition of the card also factor into how much a players rookie card gains value.
COMPLETE SETS VS. RARE CARDS: Years ago, collectors went out of their way to get every card in a set. But with more and more insert cards popping up, not everyone can afford to complete an entire set.
Evolution video cards that collectors look for. PRESERVATION: Keep your cards organized and in good condition so it is easy to nd particular cards when you need them to trade. Invest in three-ring card binders with nine-card pocket sheets. This allows you to store cards cleanly and safely. Keep cards out of direct sunlight, which can fade the colors. For your most prized cards, invest in airtight cardholders. That keeps the cards in mint condition and allows you to show them off for years.
While base-level cards have value, its usually the coveted inserts autographs, game-used jersey cards and even Upper Decks new

Quad push-ups
ou dont need to know what a power clean is or work out with weights to succeed in youth football. Pushing and pulling your body weight can create raw strength. These three exercises will give you the most payoff for your effort:
back. All at once, attempt to do a push-up and hold it for three seconds at the top position. The only parts of your bodies making contact with the ground should be your eight hands.
make these harder, stay in one place during your lunges but place your back foot laces down on a bench behind you (left) so you cant use it as much.
Jumping pull-ups
Velocity push-ups
Football players need to move people, so when it comes to pushups, I put their hands at chest not shoulder level with their elbows in tight to the torso. This builds strength by lifting players up and pushing them back. Your body needs to be rigid from chest to ankle, and at the bottom of the push-up, only your chest should be making contact with the ground. Once youve mastered the basic velocity push-up its time to try the quad push-up. Get three teammates and set yourself in a square, with each players legs on anothers lower
Pull-ups are the gold standard of bodyweight exercises because they demand you move all of it. To work your way up to regular pull-ups, stand under the bar and jump into the exercise. You can add a cardiovascular element by trying to do as many as possible in 60 seconds or work toward full pull-ups by only doing ve sets of eight but lowering yourself for a slow ve-second count on each rep. Rett Larson is director of coaching at Velocity Sports Performance and is a certied strength and conditioning specialist. He also is a member of USA Footballs Football and Wellness Committee and serves as USA Footballs expert in sports performance training.
These are ideal because they work the muscles that help you motor forward and steamroll opponents. Keeping your chest upright, step forward and dont stop descending until your back knee touches the ground. Start with ve sets of 10 on each leg and work up to 30. To

eceivers who know where the rst down marker is and reach that point on a catch can be the difference between a win and a loss. Call it eld awareness or football IQ smart players make smart plays, and those add up to victories. Hines Ward of the Pittsburgh Steelers and the New Orleans Saints Marques Colston are among the NFLs best receivers when it comes to knowing where to go to earn rst downs. You just have to be disciplined in your route, said Ward, who has the most career third down catches for rst downs (183) among active NFL players. Its about being on the same page as your quarterback and the quarterback trusting you to get the proper depth and that youll make a play for him to get the rst down. You have to know the down and distance.
Colston has moved the chains on 82 of his 95 career third down receptions since coming into the league in 2006. He is a major reason why the past ve years have been some of the most successful seasons in the Saints
44-year history. Most receiving conversions are caught underneath the coverage and turned up and advanced for the rst down, Saints head coach Sean Payton said. The important factors are understanding the coverages and having the toughness to make the extra yards that you need to get the rst downs. Marques has been a quick study since his rookie year. He enjoys learning and wants more and more knowledge. Tom Moore was the Indianapolis Colts offensive coordinator from 1998 to 2009, helping the team earn eight consecutive playoff berths, two AFC Championships and a victory in Super Bowl XLI. Whatever we did in practice, whether it was a drill, seven-on-seven or team, we had down markers in place so that our receivers were always cognizant of where they had to go for the rst down, said Moore. We scripted our plays accordingly with that in mind.

ou are what you eat: Its an everyday catchphrase especially important for young football players striving to be at their best on the practice eld and on game days. Kim Schwabenbauer, a nutrition expert and corporate dietitian with Super Bakery as well as a member of USA Footballs Football and Wellness Committee, has some valuable advice on the matter.
