Did You Know: Strategy 5.A

Non-contact football is a great opportunity to help introduce young athletes to the sport while teaching many of the fundamental skills requires to be proficient in sport at later stages of development. Non-contact football also provides a safe and fun way for youth to interact with the sport of football without having to worry about contact. In addition, non-contact football requires less equipment which may reduce start-up costs and can be played on a greater number of playing surfaces. 

Football Canada and its partners will work together to help develop standardized non-contact programming that can be implemented across the country.
