[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do you think this will change any parents' choice to sign up their daughter for soccer?[/quote] In fairness, even though there was a 5% increase this year in kids playing HS football, the numbers are down considerably from 10 years ago primarily due to the CTE findings. Without a doubt, the easiest recruitment path for High academic D1 or D3 is to play football because the UMC kids with the grades/test scores are not playing in then numbers they used to play. Those schools still have to recruit a heck of a lot of kids to field teams. Soccer has already taken many steps to limit concussions...unfortunately, all of this happened well after this 28 year old woman started playing. [/quote]
