A high school in Kentucky says it is canceling the rest of the football season for its varsity team.

On Tuesday, Bellevue High School Athletic Director Jim Hicks announced that the school made the decision because the team has a limited number of healthy players available.

Hicks said the safety of the players at Bellevue High School is their No. 1 priority.

The athletic director shared that the school looks forward to the return of varsity football in 2023.

Bellevue High School has joined other programs that have also recently canceled their football seasons.

Last month, officials at Okemos High School in Michigan said they canceled their remaining games because of health concerns regarding players.

A school district in Nebraska also made a similar decision at Lincoln Northwest High School in September.

A report with no “why” answered, which makes one ask, “why”? Perhaps because the answer would be inconvenient to the “safe. and effective” narrative.

“Health concerns.” Somebody thinks this is journalism?

Nerve damage?

Blood Clotting?

Very small school. Tough to support a full football team at any time.

What kind of “health concerns”? Like maybe 17 year olds mysteriously dropping dead of heart attacks?

A.k.a "bottom surgery".

How long will it be before someone converts Madden Football into a virtual high school football league and the schools will have virtual football players from now on?

The muscular he-man students will be forever relegated to shop class where lifting more than 50 lbs is the prerequisite.

The jab may be a factor. But high school football has risks. You’re putting guys who just went through puberty on the same field with grown men who have already signed with P5 universities. Over 20,000 injuries a year require a medical facility.

Bring back 6 man football!
It still exists in Florida & Texas.
My father played 6 man football in Ohio in the early 1940s. He graduated HS in 1942.

There are 8 & 9 man versions.

Where'd you get this number? I looked at the enrollment for Bellevue, Kentucky high school. It has 221 students in grades 9-12.

More probably the reason is the same that the US Army can’t find qualified recruits.

One word.

Fat.
