Changes over the years I've been part of
3-4 graders full contact; some 2nd graders with permission from commission with request by parents.
Huge push for implementation of the "Heads-Up" initiative, classes, certification
Much more emphasis on certifications for coaches
More Awareness of heat index, proper hydration
No kick-off, kick-off return, or punt until 5-6th grade.
Much better equipment now than ever

this...for sure.
I can't even believe how we made it in the 80's when the coach said "you'll get one water break per day if you're lucky".
I know that we were more adapted to the heat because of our lifestyles but, damn.
