3RD & GOAL (6): Future of high school game in Ontario remains uncertain

“3rd & Goal” is an exclusive CFC series that, over the next few weeks, will examine the fading future of high school football in Ontario.

IN THE OPENING INSTALMENT,Ā we looked at the reasons why high school football could be on its way out of Ontario.

THEN, we surveyed the issue of school closures and low enrolment, and linked that to the trouble some schools have to run quality programs

NEXT, we saw how a severe lack of coaches can be a major hurdle to schools who want to field competitive programs

AFTER THAT, we looked at the seriousness of concussions and how they can scare parents (and kids) away from the game.

AND, IN THE PENULTIMATE EDITION, we asked, analyzed, and answered the question: why do we need high school football?

Now, in the series finale, we ask ourselves another question, one that, as amateur football enthusiasts, is the most important one we’ve ever asked: what really is the future of high school football in Ontario?
