Wondering if anyone knew much about American Football? Went to see my mate play for our university team yesterday, seemed like it'd be good fun (yes I did understand what's going on, I have a basic understanding of the game) and I was thinking of perhaps giving it a go next year. Anyone know which position might favour a shortish but bulky top half, average sprint speed sort of guy? I doubt it matters HUGEly given the level play of am. football here in the UK, of course it'll have some bearing. My mate's of fairly similar build (albeit more muscular, I'm working on that) and he plays cornerback. Wide receiver looks pretty fun.
There is quite a large youth movement for American Football in the UK. It's hard to keep them interested beyond High School age, but if there are any lads there that have done it since they were kids they will have had really good training by real Americans from a young age so don't underestimate them.
