Starting Football and have questions.?

Where gloves if you are gonna be receiver, running back, corner etc.. Or if it helps in cold weather. It will be awkward wearing pads at first, but u will get used to it. Your girdle is what u where under your pants for hip pads and but pads. Gloves will help also with grip. The school will supply everything except gloves, cleats, spandex, visors etc..You can get a custom chin strap, u want your helmet on correctly with a nice chin strap. The parachute, power band etc..is all training equipment. You need to work out and especially work on calisthenics and 40 time. You will have a big advantage if you go in faster and in good shape. Especially for first time in pads. Remember keep your head up, WRAP and Drive. Pay attention to your coaches. I would also recommend new gloves, cleats, chin strap and ankle support is key! Good Luck hope that helps.
