Hi HTF friends. I have a question and I don't know where to pursue it. I live in SW Florida and my son is involved in football at the high school. He tells me that every practice there are kids who exercise to the point of vomiting, dizziness and other bad stuff. It is not always the same kids. I am getting concerned that the coaches are over-doing it. Especially living in one of the hottest and most humid part of the country. I think the coaches are playing a dangerous game with these boys - and my son. (he is very athletic, and participates in track and weightlifting also)My question is - am i overreacting? If not - whom do I go to with my concerns? Of course, this team is a winning team with a long term coach who has lots of community support. I wouldn't expect the principal or even the school board to be very sympathetic. It seems to me though that there has to be some state level guidelines or health standards.
