Is year-round football putting boys behind girls in line for college? - ESPN - 0 views

  • Fact 1: Enthusiasm for football has never been higher -- not just for the NFL, but with young boys and teens. Participation in prep football has increased 21 percent in the past 20 years, by nearly 200,000 boys per year, according to the National Federation of State High School Associations. Many states have begun to allow what is essentially year-round football practice. Youth-league tackle football is expanding. American boys are devoting more time and effort to football than ever before.
  • Fact 2: In higher education, student populations are increasingly female. Twenty years ago, there were more men in college than women. Now there are more women, and the ratio of college women to men is rising.
  •  
    Boys are spending their time playing football while girls are taking the slots that are available otherwise occupied by males. This is on a rise and the country has noticed and made more year-round youth football tackle football. Football correlates with grades.
