>NO CHILD LEFT BEHIND >The Football Version >1. ALL teams must make the state playoffs and all MUST win the championship. >If a team does not win the championship, they will be on probation until >they are the champions, and coaches will be held accountable. >If after two years they have not won the championship, their footballs and >equipment will be taken away UNTIL they do win the championship. >2. ALL kids will be expected to have the same football skills at the same >time, even if they do not have the same conditions or opportunities to >practice on their own. NO exceptions will be made for lack of interest in >football, a desire to perform athletically, or genetic abilities or >disabilities of themselves or their parents. >ALL KIDS WILL PLAY FOOTBALL AT A PROFICIENT LEVEL! >3. Kids may participate in other sports, but their proficiency will be >measured on the football field ONLY. Kids are expected to apply all their >skills in football, whether they practice football, swimming, gymnastics, or >any other sport. >4. Talented players will be asked to work out on their own, without >instruction. This is because the coaches will be using all their >instructional time with the athletes who aren�t interested in football, have >limited athletic ability, or whose parents don�t like football. >5. Games will be played year round, but statistics will only be kept in the >4th, 8th and 11th game. >This will create a New Age of Sports where every school is expected to have >the same level of talent and all teams will reach the same minimum goals. >No child gets ahead, so no child is left behind.
