The Reason I’m Thankful for Football
Playing a sport that involves hitting and tackling opponents seems dangerous and violent,
yet can be an excellent way to improve overall health and social skills. This sport is football
which challenges players to get physically and psychologically prepared so that one has fewer
injuries. ‘Jump on the bandwagon”. This idiom might be better to describe the situation I was in.
Yet, I had gotten sick of playing soccer in Junior Varsity team, so I joined the high school
football team in my junior year to learn a new sport. Engaging in a football program during the
last two years of high school helped me physically fit, make a lot of friends, give me support
system in school. There are various reasons why I love and am thankful for football that availed
and impacted me in several ways.
