Answer 3

i dont know. i mean i started football in 6th grade (im a freshman) and took 7th grade off from football then played again in eighth grade, and now im playin on freshman and it was hard to get right into football at 6th grade because, the pysicality of the sport is brutal and the ROTC may help, but i wouldnt start without a lot of training within the next year. especially if your team does a drill called oaklahoma. you hav to get up kwik, run hard try to evade a tackle from a short distance, or make the tackle, trust me if ur not kwik gettin up ur screwed. i hurt my tail bone the first time i did it cuz i couldnt get up fast enuff. most of all though, you want to be really conditioned so you dont start puking ur guts out, and stay hydrated during training camp. you sound kind of small. or at least compared to me. im 6'0" and 190 lbs.
