No. Some girl tried to kick a FG for some college team this year. It was blocked.

Generally, men are bigger and stronger than women. Their bodies are very different from each other. I don't think women would do very well in football. Their bodies just weren't designed for a sport like this. I'm all for equal opportunities and such, but I don't think girls could play past the high school level. I doubt they could hold up to the likes of 300 lb linemen in the pros.

In the pros, maybe just as a FG kicker or punter. At like the HS level or what not, it doesn't really matter.

By the way, welcome footballgirl

Welcome to the site.

I think at a young age (before HS) girls and boys can play together. I believe that from there they should be on their own respective teams/leagues. Girls can play football, just that they should play with other girls. Just like boys can play football, they should just play with other boys.
