The Montana and Villanova football programs come together in Chattanooga, Tennessee to decide the FCS (formerly Division 1-AA) national title.
Clemson University students engage in a form of fighting similar to what is known as “Belegarth,” the night before the Tiger football team takes on Florida State in Clemson, South Carolina. The students, known as the Tiger Knights of Appalachia, build their own foam weapons and meet three times a week on the Clemson campus.
The Tucker Lions and Ben Hill Tigers collide on the football field to decide which is the best youth football team in the Atlanta metro area. More than just bragging rights, thousands of dollars are up for grabs. The Frank Ski Kids Foundation donates the money that is vital to the continuation of youth football programs in the area.

This is awesome! These kids are playing like PROs! They have a lot to be proud of. I want my son in Football, and Tucker Lions’ footbal is the closest, but I could drive further and go to the Candler Park Colts. so here is a question…
Ok.. so I am looking for input from someone who has worked with a Youth Football League, in a racially diverse League…. first know that I am white, slightly above average income, my wife is latin, I am not racist, and I enjoy my friends as extended family, and I have blue-collar african-american friends in that extended family.
Ok.. so all that said.. my son is new to football.. and he is thick and strong and big…. he can take a hit in karate but he isn’t super tough.
I am wondering 1) will he be accepted and if we don’t give him reason to focus on it, will he care about being the only white kid, 2) is the Tucker League well organized, 3) is he tough enough to play these young african-american boys versus mostly white boys in the Candler park teams, and 4) is there anything I can get him exposed to now? Are there Football camps in spring?
Thanks
