Is football a safe sport?
Football is a contact sport and every effort is made to ensure that your child does not sustain injuries while on the field. All children are required to wear full equipment including a helmet and mouth guard. All equipment (except shoes) is provided by Bel-Air. The helmets are certified annually and the equipment is checked and replaced when it is no longer safe to use. In addition, all NCAFA football clubs have volunteers who are trained in first aid on the field at practices and games.
