For The Price Of One Football Helmet…
I did a little research before starting this blog. I looked up the price of a high school football helmet and came up with somewhere between $400 and $500. A football helmet is obviously a very important football budget purchase. For the sake of this blog though, I would like to make a football comparison.
Price and value are often confusing things. It might be the price of a round of golf as compared to your weekly groceries. We cringe at the price of every item in the grocery store while spending a comparable amount of money playing our favorite game. It’s all in our perspective.
So a high school football helmet can cost you around $450, and obviously you are going to need as many helmets as you have players. Let’s say you have 50 players. Simple math says that is going to be a $22,500 hit on your budget. This is a great investment. You are protecting an important part of every player’s body.
Here is our point. A football helmet costs around $450 for ONE helmet. You can put knowledge into every one of those heads you are protecting when you purchase a FirstDown PlayBook Full Team account for $550. Here is why that has value.
For The Price Of One Football Helmet You Can Do This
This is knowledge you provide that obviously helps you and your team have success which also parlays into more kids wanting to play. It also benefits your assistant coaches who are critical to your program. You likely pay them about the equivalent of four or five helmets to coach.
Is there value in teaching well? You pick the field and it is important to actually value the education you receive. Is an Ivy League education more important than others? You make that decision. My point is FirstDown PlayBook allows you and your staff to teach better.
The last math equation we will give you is that a FirstDown PlayBook Full Team membership has no limit for members. That one helmet just allowed you to reach you, your staff, your team, any feeder programs including your area flag football leagues. No limit on your membership means just that. No limit.
On my way out, I will leave you with where I started. Safety. You are protecting players with their helmets as you should. As important as a football helmet is, there is an argument to be made that the instruction a young player receives also protects them.
Protection that FirstDown PlayBook allows you and your staff to provide every player and parent in your community.
