It would also prohibit schools from revoking a scholarship from a player who received outside compensation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It is a multibillion dollar business,” Skinner said. “Our higher education institutions are making lots of money off the talent of these athletes, as well as the media, commercial entities and, of course, the NCAA. And yet the students themselves? Nothing.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Skinner characterizes the bill as giving college athletes a chance to function similarly to Olympic athletes, who are allowed to receive compensation through corporate sponsorship deals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Because the NCAA is a national organization and Skinner’s legislation would apply to California schools, it remains unclear what exactly would happen if the bill were signed into law.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Stanford Law Emeritus Professor and former National Labor Relations Board Chairman William B. Gould said even if Skinner’s bill made it through the Legislature and was signed into law, it likely wouldn’t have any immediate impact.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’ll certainly see legal challenges,” he said. “And generally the courts have been, in a variety of contexts, quite deferential to the NCAA.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2009, a former UCLA basketball player filed a class-action lawsuit against the NCAA, claiming student-athletes should be paid for the commercial use of their images. A federal judge in Oakland ruled in favor of the plaintiffs in 2014, finding the NCAA’s amateurism rules \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2014/08/08/338974715/ncaa-loses-antitrust-ruling-in-athletes-case\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">violated antitrust laws\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals upheld the decision a year later, but overturned the judge’s decision that schools be allowed to pay student-athletes up to $5,000 a year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Skinner noted that some schools in the state have expressed hesitancy over the measure, worrying that the NCAA would penalize them for allowing student-athletes to receive monetary compensation. But she said she’s confident that wouldn’t happen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Look how big the market of California is,” she said. “Look how many colleges we have and how many teams we have that participate in the NCAA. Is the NCAA really going to kick all of California out? I doubt it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Skinner also said she hopes the tension that her legislation might cause between the NCAA and California colleges would spark change at the national level.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It will be catalytic,” she said. “This is how we’re going to get the NCAA to change and to treat athletes fairly.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Stanford’s Gould says it would take “internal pressure” for the NCAA to change its policies on amateurism and student-athlete pay. And that pressure, he claims, would have to come either from a successful antitrust case against the organization or from the unionization of college athletes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Neither of those efforts are likely to be fruitful under the Trump administration though, according to Gould.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The relevant administrative agencies are not going to allow it to happen,” he said. “They’re not going to regard student-athletes as employees within the meaning of labor law.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The NCAA did not respond to a request for comment on Skinner’s legislation and did not answer questions about how it might respond if the bill were to become law.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Earlier this month, U.S. District Court Judge Claudia Wilkens — the same judge who oversaw the previous class-action lawsuit against the NCAA — \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2019/03/08/sports/ncaa-amateurism-ruling.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ruled\u003c/a> in another federal antitrust lawsuit that student-athletes should be permitted to receive compensation from schools beyond their current athletic scholarship, but only if the benefits are tied to education.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While technically a victory for student-athlete compensation, the ruling would in essence allow the NCAA’s no-pay rules to remain in force.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The court’s decision recognizes that college sports should be played by student-athletes, not by paid professionals,” said NCAA chief legal counsel Donald Remy in response to Wilkens’ March ruling. “The decision acknowledges that the popularity of college sports stems in part from the fact that these athletes are indeed students, who must not be paid unlimited cash sums unrelated to education.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Reporting from the Associated Press was used in this report.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n",

Nothing.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Skinner characterizes the bill as giving college athletes a chance to function similarly to Olympic athletes, who are allowed to receive compensation through corporate sponsorship deals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Because the NCAA is a national organization and Skinner’s legislation would apply to California schools, it remains unclear what exactly would happen if the bill were signed into law.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Stanford Law Emeritus Professor and former National Labor Relations Board Chairman William B. Gould said even if Skinner’s bill made it through the Legislature and was signed into law, it likely wouldn’t have any immediate impact.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’ll certainly see legal challenges,” he said. “And generally the courts have been, in a variety of contexts, quite deferential to the NCAA.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2009, a former UCLA basketball player filed a class-action lawsuit against the NCAA, claiming student-athletes should be paid for the commercial use of their images. A federal judge in Oakland ruled in favor of the plaintiffs in 2014, finding the NCAA’s amateurism rules \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2014/08/08/338974715/ncaa-loses-antitrust-ruling-in-athletes-case\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">violated antitrust laws\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals upheld the decision a year later, but overturned the judge’s decision that schools be allowed to pay student-athletes up to $5,000 a year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Skinner noted that some schools in the state have expressed hesitancy over the measure, worrying that the NCAA would penalize them for allowing student-athletes to receive monetary compensation. But she said she’s confident that wouldn’t happen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Look how big the market of California is,” she said. “Look how many colleges we have and how many teams we have that participate in the NCAA. Is the NCAA really going to kick all of California out? I doubt it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Skinner also said she hopes the tension that her legislation might cause between the NCAA and California colleges would spark change at the national level.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It will be catalytic,” she said. “This is how we’re going to get the NCAA to change and to treat athletes fairly.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Stanford’s Gould says it would take “internal pressure” for the NCAA to change its policies on amateurism and student-athlete pay. And that pressure, he claims, would have to come either from a successful antitrust case against the organization or from the unionization of college athletes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Neither of those efforts are likely to be fruitful under the Trump administration though, according to Gould.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The relevant administrative agencies are not going to allow it to happen,” he said. “They’re not going to regard student-athletes as employees within the meaning of labor law.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The NCAA did not respond to a request for comment on Skinner’s legislation and did not answer questions about how it might respond if the bill were to become law.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Earlier this month, U.S. District Court Judge Claudia Wilkens — the same judge who oversaw the previous class-action lawsuit against the NCAA — \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2019/03/08/sports/ncaa-amateurism-ruling.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ruled\u003c/a> in another federal antitrust lawsuit that student-athletes should be permitted to receive compensation from schools beyond their current athletic scholarship, but only if the benefits are tied to education.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While technically a victory for student-athlete compensation, the ruling would in essence allow the NCAA’s no-pay rules to remain in force.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The court’s decision recognizes that college sports should be played by student-athletes, not by paid professionals,” said NCAA chief legal counsel Donald Remy in response to Wilkens’ March ruling. “The decision acknowledges that the popularity of college sports stems in part from the fact that these athletes are indeed students, who must not be paid unlimited cash sums unrelated to education.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Reporting from the Associated Press was used in this report.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

I came up here in 2007 on my gut. So it’s a gut feeling it’s time,\" said Bochy, who turns 64 in April. \"It’s been an unbelievable ride. There's so much in there to be grateful for, with the players, the city, the fans, my ride here. It's time. I'll stay in baseball and do something.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He came to San Francisco from the San Diego Padres before the 2007 season, in time to watch Barry Bonds break Hank Aaron’s career home run record that August.

He led the club to \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/10345949/world-series-update-in-game-seven-both-teams-score-early\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">World Series\u003c/a> titles in 2010, '12 and '14.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Every other manager with three or more titles has been inducted into the Hall of Fame. \"I haven’t even thought about that,\" he said — but others have already started speculating.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/SlangsOnSports/status/1097580109505138689\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He has faced daily questions about his future, and said he wanted to address his plans now and avoid distractions later in the season. He intends to stay in baseball in another role that has yet to be determined.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"There's a lot of things that I look forward to doing, but right now my head’s at this moment, hey, I'm going to focus on getting this team ready. I look forward to one more shot, trust me, and us having a big year. I'm all in.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When asked if he'd consider managing another team after this season, Bochy said, \"never is a big word...but that's not where my head is at.\" He's focused on the upcoming season.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bochy came to the decision over the winter, but had realized this would likely be his last year at the end of the 2018 season. He discussed it with family and the front office.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I’m not going anywhere. I don’t have any cruises planned, trust me, I don’t plan on going up Mount Everest.

But the data do cover most of the 877 high schools tallied by state and national censuses in 2017-18.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In this time span, these 800 or so schools—large, small and spread throughout California’s ten CIF “sections,” or regions—saw a nearly 11 percent decline in football participation overall, from about 81,500 participants in 2011 to 72,600 students in 2017.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those figures more or less square with estimates by the state governing organization, which reported an approximate 13 percent statewide decline in football over the past decade. Across the country, participation has gone down roughly 5 percent since 2011, the national association reports.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"//datawrapper.dwcdn.net/aCpva/2/\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" width=\"600\" height=\"500\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The drop in California has been steeper in some parts of the state than in others, the analysis found. The CIF’s small Oakland Section, for instance, has actually gained players. And in the Central Valley, the decline has scarcely registered. The CIF Central Section, home to historically competitive football regions in Fresno and Bakersfield, saw almost no drop in participation. The 83 schools in the region that submitted data for both years collectively lost about 100 male football players, or a decline of about 1 percent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But in the massive CIF Southern Section—a cohort of hundreds of schools including nationally known programs and spanning most of the counties in Southern California—roughly one player in seven over the last six years has dropped off the roster.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The data show growth in participation in only a fraction of schools and only a couple of regions. Only about 50 of the nearly 800 schools included in CALmatters’ analysis gained 30 or more football players between 2011 and 2017. But 168 football programs showed \u003cem>losses\u003c/em> of 30 players or more. In the most extreme examples, the decline essentially halved some schools’ rosters:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Chino Hills High School in San Bernardino County had 250 kids in its football program in 2011; that number was down to 100 last year.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>The football program at Vista Murrieta High School in Riverside County went from 307 players to 175 in those six years, according to the data.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>And at Servite High School in Orange County—which won a state championship in 2009 and where the Class of ‘03 included Patriots star special teamer Matthew Slater, the son of the Rams’ Hall of Famer Jackie Slater—football participation has dropped from 275 kids in 2011 to 148 last year.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" id=\"datawrapper-chart-9k7WM\" src=\"//datawrapper.dwcdn.net/9k7WM/1/\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"width: 0; min-width: 100% !important;\" height=\"400\" width=\"100%\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So far, the decline hasn’t jeopardized California’s standing as a \u003ca href=\"https://www.sbnation.com/college-football-recruiting/2016/6/28/12040586/rankings-state-stars-florida-texas-california\">dominant pipeline\u003c/a> for collegiate and professional football. Only a fraction of high school players ever get recruited to play in college, let alone the pros. And football still is the \u003ca href=\"http://cifstate.org/coaches-admin/census/2017_CIF_Participation_Census.pdf\">most popular boys sport\u003c/a> in California, the nation’s most populous state.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, it comes amid a tense and highly publicized debate in the state over the safety of the sport, with legislators last year unsuccessfully pushing a bill to ban youth tackle football for children under age 12. Though the authors of that bill appear to have backed off this year, new legislation backed by youth football advocates would limit contact time for youth programs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Roger Pielke Jr., director at the Sports Governance Center at University of Colorado, said that while “football is in a relatively healthy condition,” the numbers in California and nationally point to signs that “we in the United States are past peak football.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s undeniable at this point that there’s been a decline in this sport,” Pielke said, adding that youth and high school participation indicate “at a minimum, a slow attrition.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" id=\"datawrapper-chart-BBeN8\" src=\"//datawrapper.dwcdn.net/BBeN8/1/\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"width: 0; min-width: 100% !important;\" height=\"400\" width=\"100%\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The declines have had a pronounced impact on some programs, including Healdsburg High School in Sonoma County, which \u003ca href=\"https://www.pressdemocrat.com/sports/8680510-181/healdsburg-high-shelves-varsity-football\">made headlines last year\u003c/a> when the varsity team cancelled its season due to low numbers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We do not consider them quitters at all,” Principal Bill Halliday told CALmatters in September, adding that in Healdsburg, “Friday night lights is very much a big part of the community.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But having only 18 players on the team meant that many kids had to play offense, defense and special teams throughout entire games. After the second game of the season, players met and voted whether to continue—a particularly heartbreaking choice for seniors in their final season.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Their parents could feel the pain of their sons, and it pains them,” Halliday said. “It was not easy for anybody.” But, he added, “We think that they very much made a decision and perceived correctly that the situation wasn’t sustainable.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The state’s participation data also indicate some schools in recent years switched from 11-player to 8-player football programs, which still involve full contact but with smaller teams.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Weed High School, about 70 miles north of Redding, was among the programs that made the switch, in part because of low participation and declining enrollment that allowed it to meet the state’s threshold for 8-player schools, said Steve Neel, the school’s athletic director.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Weed’s programs fielded 28 boys for 11-player football in 2011, according to state data, and had gone down to 18 players by 2017, when the Weed Cougars competed in an eight-player league.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We just really felt for us to compete and for the safety of our kids that it was important to move eight-man,” Neel said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The switch paid off, Neel said. The school was more competitive in an eight-player league and there were fewer injuries. In past years, the school had to fold teams because of low numbers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Weed will again play in an 11-player league this fall in part because of a student enrollment hike that bumps it out of 8-player eligibility, Neel said, event though the varsity roster is projected to field only 13 players. But at least, he added, the school still has a program.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I thought we might in some respects have a chance to lose football at Weed High School,” Neel said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" id=\"datawrapper-chart-vaDaE\" src=\"//datawrapper.dwcdn.net/vaDaE/3/\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"width: 0; min-width: 100% !important;\" height=\"400\" width=\"100%\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And football lovers have gotten creative on other fronts. Last year, Democratic Assemblymembers Kevin McCarty of Sacramento and Lorena Gonzalez of San Diego introduced Assembly Bill 2801, which would have barred students from playing tackle football until high school.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Believing the legislation went too far, youth football supporters formed a grassroots coalition, called the \u003ca href=\"https://www.cayfa.org/\">California Youth Football Alliance\u003c/a>, and mounted a successful social media campaign to oppose the bill. Eventually \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billTextClient.xhtml?bill_id=201720180AB2108\">AB 2108\u003c/a> was pulled by McCarty and Gonzalez before being heard in a committee.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This year, a representative for Gonzalez said she had no plans to introduce similar legislation, and McCarty said this week that he is “exploring the issue once again, but no definitive answer yet.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meanwhile, Assemblyman Jim Cooper, a Democrat from Elk Grove, introduced \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billTextClient.xhtml?bill_id=201920200AB1\">AB 1\u003c/a> this session, which would limit youth football programs to two full-contact practices per week at a cap of 60 minutes per day, as well as ban full-contact during the offseason. Those regulations are similar to recent ones the state enacted for high school teams.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The California Youth Football Alliance came to me, they understand there are risks with playing football, and they asked that it be regulated,” Cooper said. “They want to make sure it’s safe for their children.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cooper said the bill represents a “good medium” for making the sport safer for the state’s youngest students. “It doesn’t have to be either or.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, the trend is what it is, with or without legislation, said McCarty.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Every month, another study surfaces outlining the risks of youth tackle football,” he noted. “Every month, another NFL legend speaks up and questions the wisdom of youth tackle football.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He added, “But more importantly, parents see the risks and are voting with their feet.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>\u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CALmatters.org\u003c/a> is a nonprofit, nonpartisan media venture explaining California policies and politics.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n",

But the data do cover most of the 877 high schools tallied by state and national censuses in 2017-18.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In this time span, these 800 or so schools—large, small and spread throughout California’s ten CIF “sections,” or regions—saw a nearly 11 percent decline in football participation overall, from about 81,500 participants in 2011 to 72,600 students in 2017.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those figures more or less square with estimates by the state governing organization, which reported an approximate 13 percent statewide decline in football over the past decade.

The CIF’s small Oakland Section, for instance, has actually gained players. And in the Central Valley, the decline has scarcely registered. The CIF Central Section, home to historically competitive football regions in Fresno and Bakersfield, saw almost no drop in participation. The 83 schools in the region that submitted data for both years collectively lost about 100 male football players, or a decline of about 1 percent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But in the massive CIF Southern Section—a cohort of hundreds of schools including nationally known programs and spanning most of the counties in Southern California—roughly one player in seven over the last six years has dropped off the roster.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The data show growth in participation in only a fraction of schools and only a couple of regions. Only about 50 of the nearly 800 schools included in CALmatters’ analysis gained 30 or more football players between 2011 and 2017. But 168 football programs showed \u003cem>losses\u003c/em> of 30 players or more. In the most extreme examples, the decline essentially halved some schools’ rosters:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Chino Hills High School in San Bernardino County had 250 kids in its football program in 2011; that number was down to 100 last year.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>The football program at Vista Murrieta High School in Riverside County went from 307 players to 175 in those six years, according to the data.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>And at Servite High School in Orange County—which won a state championship in 2009 and where the Class of ‘03 included Patriots star special teamer Matthew Slater, the son of the Rams’ Hall of Famer Jackie Slater—football participation has dropped from 275 kids in 2011 to 148 last year.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" id=\"datawrapper-chart-9k7WM\" src=\"//datawrapper.dwcdn.net/9k7WM/1/\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"width: 0; min-width: 100% !important;\" height=\"400\" width=\"100%\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So far, the decline hasn’t jeopardized California’s standing as a \u003ca href=\"https://www.sbnation.com/college-football-recruiting/2016/6/28/12040586/rankings-state-stars-florida-texas-california\">dominant pipeline\u003c/a> for collegiate and professional football. Only a fraction of high school players ever get recruited to play in college, let alone the pros. And football still is the \u003ca href=\"http://cifstate.org/coaches-admin/census/2017_CIF_Participation_Census.pdf\">most popular boys sport\u003c/a> in California, the nation’s most populous state.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, it comes amid a tense and highly publicized debate in the state over the safety of the sport, with legislators last year unsuccessfully pushing a bill to ban youth tackle football for children under age 12. Though the authors of that bill appear to have backed off this year, new legislation backed by youth football advocates would limit contact time for youth programs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Roger Pielke Jr., director at the Sports Governance Center at University of Colorado, said that while “football is in a relatively healthy condition,” the numbers in California and nationally point to signs that “we in the United States are past peak football.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s undeniable at this point that there’s been a decline in this sport,” Pielke said, adding that youth and high school participation indicate “at a minimum, a slow attrition.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" id=\"datawrapper-chart-BBeN8\" src=\"//datawrapper.dwcdn.net/BBeN8/1/\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"width: 0; min-width: 100% !important;\" height=\"400\" width=\"100%\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The declines have had a pronounced impact on some programs, including Healdsburg High School in Sonoma County, which \u003ca href=\"https://www.pressdemocrat.com/sports/8680510-181/healdsburg-high-shelves-varsity-football\">made headlines last year\u003c/a> when the varsity team cancelled its season due to low numbers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We do not consider them quitters at all,” Principal Bill Halliday told CALmatters in September, adding that in Healdsburg, “Friday night lights is very much a big part of the community.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But having only 18 players on the team meant that many kids had to play offense, defense and special teams throughout entire games. After the second game of the season, players met and voted whether to continue—a particularly heartbreaking choice for seniors in their final season.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Their parents could feel the pain of their sons, and it pains them,” Halliday said. “It was not easy for anybody.” But, he added, “We think that they very much made a decision and perceived correctly that the situation wasn’t sustainable.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The state’s participation data also indicate some schools in recent years switched from 11-player to 8-player football programs, which still involve full contact but with smaller teams.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Weed High School, about 70 miles north of Redding, was among the programs that made the switch, in part because of low participation and declining enrollment that allowed it to meet the state’s threshold for 8-player schools, said Steve Neel, the school’s athletic director.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Weed’s programs fielded 28 boys for 11-player football in 2011, according to state data, and had gone down to 18 players by 2017, when the Weed Cougars competed in an eight-player league.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We just really felt for us to compete and for the safety of our kids that it was important to move eight-man,” Neel said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The switch paid off, Neel said. The school was more competitive in an eight-player league and there were fewer injuries. In past years, the school had to fold teams because of low numbers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Weed will again play in an 11-player league this fall in part because of a student enrollment hike that bumps it out of 8-player eligibility, Neel said, event though the varsity roster is projected to field only 13 players. But at least, he added, the school still has a program.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I thought we might in some respects have a chance to lose football at Weed High School,” Neel said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" id=\"datawrapper-chart-vaDaE\" src=\"//datawrapper.dwcdn.net/vaDaE/3/\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"width: 0; min-width: 100% !important;\" height=\"400\" width=\"100%\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And football lovers have gotten creative on other fronts. Last year, Democratic Assemblymembers Kevin McCarty of Sacramento and Lorena Gonzalez of San Diego introduced Assembly Bill 2801, which would have barred students from playing tackle football until high school.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Believing the legislation went too far, youth football supporters formed a grassroots coalition, called the \u003ca href=\"https://www.cayfa.org/\">California Youth Football Alliance\u003c/a>, and mounted a successful social media campaign to oppose the bill. Eventually \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billTextClient.xhtml?bill_id=201720180AB2108\">AB 2108\u003c/a> was pulled by McCarty and Gonzalez before being heard in a committee.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This year, a representative for Gonzalez said she had no plans to introduce similar legislation, and McCarty said this week that he is “exploring the issue once again, but no definitive answer yet.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meanwhile, Assemblyman Jim Cooper, a Democrat from Elk Grove, introduced \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billTextClient.xhtml?bill_id=201920200AB1\">AB 1\u003c/a> this session, which would limit youth football programs to two full-contact practices per week at a cap of 60 minutes per day, as well as ban full-contact during the offseason. Those regulations are similar to recent ones the state enacted for high school teams.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The California Youth Football Alliance came to me, they understand there are risks with playing football, and they asked that it be regulated,” Cooper said. “They want to make sure it’s safe for their children.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cooper said the bill represents a “good medium” for making the sport safer for the state’s youngest students. “It doesn’t have to be either or.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, the trend is what it is, with or without legislation, said McCarty.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Every month, another study surfaces outlining the risks of youth tackle football,” he noted. “Every month, another NFL legend speaks up and questions the wisdom of youth tackle football.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He added, “But more importantly, parents see the risks and are voting with their feet.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
