Motivation

This video is moving to me. Don't mind him yeling after all football is a contact sport that helps us athletes release some anger from time to time.

Slideshow

This is a little slideshow I put together showing that football helps develop traits that some people use in life.

Being Generous



Here's a video of Montana State football players helping the Sunshine Camp by volunteering to help them with construction and rebuilding of the camp.  The camp itself runs off of donations and gifts so the Montana State football players are doing most if not all of the labor for free.  This is another example of teamwork and generosity that football displays.

Life Lessons

Here's a link to website that explains how coaches use football to teach life lessons to youths.
Enjoy.

The Right Path



For some people including myself, football was a way out or in other words a way to get away from certain things.  Whether it be family problems, the neighborhood you live in, or the school you go to football is a way for you to release some stress and just let everything go.  Here's a video where an ex-con is trying to keep youths off the street and help keep them on the right path.

Helping Hand

Here's an example of teamwork.  The University of Arizona football players are working together to accomplish the goals on the Leadership Reaction Course at Fort Huachuca.  Teamwork on the field travels off the field because the football team is like a family and teamwork is something that family does.  Stick together and get things accomplished as a team.
