[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As the demographics of Hardy changes, it will get harder and harder to field a football team. Upper income families familiar with the medical science are not letting their kids take hits to the head and their bodies. Not when it can affect life and educational outcomes. This is probably why the coach had to specifically recruit kids from elsewhere. RIP Hardy football. [/quote] Yeah Deal no longer has a football team. I'm surprised parents are surprised about this at Hardy. It's a much smaller school, I can't imagine they had enough kids to safely play. [/quote] If the coach was taking an “Iron Man” approach - kids play both offense and defense without a real break - that is a big no-no. Especially with middle schoolers. Chance of injury goes way up when you play Iron Man football.[/quote]
