Description of service
The price is for one season's participation of one kid in a local junior tackle football team association. They have several classes for players mainly based on the age and weight of the player, gender is irrelevant. I'm told they also have a dance, cheer, and flag football teams, but I didn't see anything about them at registration because my kid dragged me right to the tackle football registration table.
Review of Service
This is the sum of what I know about football: two teams of a bunch of guys take turns trying to move a football to the other team's end of the field while the other team tries to stop them. Oh, and that I somehow got volunteered into being an assistant coach this year by my son, who thinks football is just about the greatest thing ever and is as excited this season as he was the last few years.
My son loves this stuff and just finds it amusing that I somehow grew up in the US and didn't learn anything about the big three sports--football, baseball, and basketball.
Tips
According to the CDC football, with an average of 4 injuries per 1000 exposures, is about twice as dangerous as the next most dangerous sports of baseball, basketball, and soccer. High school, college, and professional teams have found that injury rate can be dramatically reduced with weight training, and a number of studies have shown that weight training is no more dangerous or harmful for still-growing kids than it is for adults.
