Another evidence from Scholastic scope is, "Nationwide programs are training coaches, parents, and athletes to recognize and treat concussions." This helps the safety of football because people can treat and recognize concussions. Additionally, Scholastic Scope says, "Football can even help with college. For many students, an athletic scholarship is the only way they can afford to go." Football can help kids get into college who normally couldn't go because they can't afford it. These are many reasons that football benefits to young athletes.
