Glad I could help. I never played football till high school and when I did, my parents didn't know much about it either. I had baseball gloves and lineman cleats, and with huge running back shoulder pads. I had no idea there was a difference....and my coaches didn't tell me either.
Thanks so much. This is my first year of playing football and I'm in 8th grade like "god damn how the hell am I supposed to put shoulder pads and a jersey on?" And now I know that my shoulder pads go in my jersey. Appreciate it.
The layers are what's important. You need a base layer no matter what. But your base layer in August is obviously different that your base layer on December.
Base layer is whatever you use as your base. Ideally it should be sweat wicking. Whether its fitted or compression is personal preference. Watch my compression wear vids in my compression playlist to see why I think compression is best.
I know the video is old but for anyone who might see this: If you need two pairs of socks to get the lacing on your shoes tight enough that your feet don't slip during play you have bought shoes that are to big. If so I would recommend going down a half size or maybe even a full size depending on how tight you like the shoes to fit.
My jersey number is #5 I usually have trouble putting on the pads but for the pants or whatever you wanna call it, the pads are already built in to them. Thank you for the video this should help!
adtr4life Yes they do. They are required equipment. They pull them up over their knees though. They still have them, they are just pulled up over the knee.
That is totally stupid you can get hurt just as bad with out knee pads the only thing that they help with is when your hitting the ground or somebody with your knee but if you hurt your knee it's most likely not because of that
OMG...we are "hockey people" and this is the first year my son wants to play football...if I never saw this tip abut putting the jersey on the shoulder pads first...thats cray cray :) great tip..thanks so much!
Hey guys, I'm 14 years old, played a little football before. I'm around 6,1-6,2 and I have no idea which position I would play. What do you think? I'm pretty fast and I weigh around 78 kg!
kids here be like im 15 look like pears smell like guac wheigh like 5 sticks and run like sanic what possed doll should i play with oh and im gay im like oh left bench
Last time I commented on this video it was 2019 and you replied. NOW ITS 2020 BABY LETS GOO. I learned a lot from this video just started playing tackle football, thank you.
BrixForce wait till your 16. According to doctors girls brains are super susceptible to injury before the age of 16 and boys before the age of 14. I would recommend tackle football before those ages under any circumstances.
No you aren't and this guy is a professional football player for a Chicago semi-pro football team. Devin Gardner is #98 for Michigan, and he is not a professional....
Ok so I'm 5'9 and I weigh 200 pounds and I'm just about to go into hs my pe coach said I have very good hands but at the highschool I'm going we don't use tightends and I'm not even close to fast enough for a reciever so what position should I play? Thanks for all the responses in advanced
Ima girl and I want to play football. I'm really good at it and I've played for a small team before but I've never actually wore football gear and I'm wondering how to put football pants on because we have a different private then guys so does it matter?
When I secure my shoulder pads I make sure I'm able to raise my hands over my head so if I was to catch an interception, my shoulder pads would be able to let my arms extended all the way out... Long story short, make sure your pads are secure but also make sure you can extend your arms for an interception
I'm from Sri Lanka and we love American football but it isn't big here at all, dream is to play some level of professional football as a wide receiver or CB, this video was really interesting!
Just asking anyone who bothers to reply to be but, I live in a country called wales right, but I was born in Cali but all I've ever wanted to do was play football but because My parents forced me to move here I've lost the chance to join a football team in school now my only chance is to move back out there when I'm about 17-18 so what could I do to start playing or is there even a use in me trying to play?
I’m 13 5’9’ 150 and have played running back all my life, this year I got much taller and have been thinking about a position change. I also play baseball seriously and have a really good arm. Would qb suit my body type?
It is so funny that your base layer is already padded and installed, while in the youth Colts Football, you get a Girdle where you have to install All pads yourself, the football pants go over the girdle with the pads, you have to install the Hip Pads in the Girdle which is the hardest part since you just about have to be wearing the girdle to basically even put them in, you then have to lace the pants and top of the Hip pads, and that is definitely the longest, then you have to put on your jersey and shoulder pads over all that, then helmet, and all that 15 minute process for a 2 hour practice. Woo.

I remember when I first started playing in 4th grade and was so excited to put my pads on for the first time. I kept on rewatching this video

Why am I watching this I know damn well how to put on my football gear

2:02 HONEY? WHERE IS MY SUPER SUIT?

Aidan and stuff I’m 13 now going to play highschool football so I’m pretty late😂
putting the jersey on the shoulder pads is the same thing i have done for 2 years, it feels awesome to know that I'm not alone
Bro u were my childhood fr. Taught me the basics when i was young😮💨
I appreciate you! And glad I could help!
Yes definitely. A lot of guys I know do this because it stays in place better than the traditional knee pad.
And time to take it all off😂😂
For anyone asking what position they should play just join/tryout for a team and the coaches will tell you where they think you should play.
Exactly
i’ve been playing football for 5 years now and idk why but before every season i still watch this it’s become a tradition for me now
I always forget your position, was it CB?
CB and Safety
+I Know Football Where do you play?
I Live Near And Play Where He Plays
probably he looks built for a CB
He should play Tight end.
Thank you! My son just started football and needs to wear his gear today. I had no clue what to do.

Everything is valid but, you should always wear knee pads to prevent knee injury of any type.
True
Do u watch college wide receivers don't wear knee pads it slows them down
I Know Football
adtr4life Yes they do. They are required equipment. They pull them up over their knees though. They still have them, they are just pulled up over the knee.
That is totally stupid you can get hurt just as bad with out knee pads the only thing that they help with is when your hitting the ground or somebody with your knee but if you hurt your knee it's most likely not because of that
For some reason I just can’t wear tight clothing it’s so uncomfortable like compression pants/shirts
