    Ferndale Tavern C-Dawgs Team Profile
    Ferndale Tavern C-Dawgs
    Hanover, MD
    We play on Sundays in a league in Glen Burnie. It's 8 on 8 full contact flag. That means the blocking is live but no real hitting the ball carrier (maybe just a little :)). We play in a league with about 10 other teams. We are looking to add good athletes who are committed and serious. The guys on our team are all very cool. No B.S. I would say the team ages range from 22 to 40. A couple of times a year we travel to different tournaments around the country for football and fun. We're sponsored by Ferndale Tavern so that means no out of pocket expenses for league fees, plus, cold beer after practices. If you like it cool, if not that's also cool. We are sanctioned by the USFTL. Check out there web site. www.usftl.com I threw a lot at you. If you have any more questions let me know. Email me direct at andybloom@comcast.net Thanks, Andy Bloom

About Football

Football, also known as American football, is a team game that combines strategy and physical play. The object of football is to advance the ball up the field by running and passing the ball, and scoring a touchdown by crossing the ball into the end zone. Professional football, high school football, and college football are all highly popular spectator sports in the United States.

Football History

Football originated from a primitive game of rugby played in America in the 1840s. In 1880, Walter Camp, considered the "Father of American Football," exchanged the traditional rugby scrum for a line of scrimmage. In 1882, the four down system was introduced to negate Princeton and Yale's strategy to hold the ball without trying to score. The following year, Camp reduced the number of players to eleven, and introduced the seven-man offensive line, with a quarterback, two halfbacks, and a full back. The first professional game was played in 1895. The National Football League (NFL) began in the early 1920s. Today, football is one of the most popular sports in the United States.

Football Tips

Good football players are agile. Agility drills include: jumping rope, running through tires, and jumping over cones.

There are a variety of lesser contact versions of Football available. Tackle Football is the sport practiced by major professional leagues such as the NFL, but flag football and touch football are varieties that allow the player to be "tackled" by either touching with two hands or pulling a piece of ribbon or "flag" off the opposing player. This also allows for Co-ed or women's teams to engage without fear of injury.
