I play football and im on the track team and my high school both of which im highly competitive in, my frosh year i was 1st in the state in my event in track, and in football I've been recruited by dartmouth, harvard, hobart, and tufts. Im only a sophmore but ive encountered a very tough decision, on whether or not to do track or football, because this year, my sophmore year, right after the first game in football i needed surgery on my shoulder which took me out for the season. Im finally back to doing everything now, and Im questioning whether or not to stick with track or to continue football. I know im being highly recruited as a sophmore for football, but im not sure if its something I want to do in college even though everyone tells me i should. Im set on doing track, cuz my coach is awesome and its pretty fun, but Im not sure if I should continue football. I really prefer track over football, but wouldnt mind playing football, i just dont know if i wanna play in college. Just looking for your opinions thanks.

Ramneet answered Sunday February 22 2015, 11:54 pm: If you are really fit to play football and be on the track team after your surgery, then I think you should try manage both of them by using a sports team management website and then decide which one is fun and convenient for you to manage thus, choose that one. There are plenty of such websites available on the internet, and that is finding the best out of them is a tedious task. I personally went through this selection process and after an intensive research, I came face to face with sportzly. This sports team management website offers the latest and state-of-the-art management tools for the perfect execution of different management activities regarding different types of sports. Just try it once and I am sure you will definitely reach on a conclusion. It is free to use and all you need to do is to sign up to begin your journey towards a better future. Hope I helped.

I would definitely pick track if I were you because of the injury. maybe play football on the side, on a kind of club team or just a bunch of friends. If you like track, pick track, but its up to you. hope i helped<3 [ scrwdlsr666's advice column | Ask scrwdlsr666 A Question ]
Myrrha answered Monday January 19 2009, 2:02 am: Both sports can land you scholarships. Football may be very risky in the long run because of you shoulder. You could very easily injure it worse later on, and it may never be the same. Also, pursuing football, you have a slim chance of making it to the NFL (tho very small.) Track is much safer, and sounds like its more fulfilling for you. The path you could take professionally could be quite rewarding also (marathons, triathelons, and possibly the olympics one day.) Sounds to me you are quite talented, and either way you have a successful future ahead. [ Myrrha's advice column | Ask Myrrha A Question ]
