USA Football’s 2019 Protection Tour continued last Friday night in Santa Clara, Calif., home of the San Francisco 49ers’ Levi’s Stadium and SAP Performance Facility. Bay Area youth players and their families joined USA Football, Riddell and the 49ers for an evening of fun, fitness and football.
To the untrained eye, Thursday morning at Ford Field looked like an ordinary summer day. A group of young children were going through football drills and scrimmaging with the kind of exuberance you’d expect from kids during summer playing on the same field of their favorite professional team. That alone is a treat of its own, but for the Detroit Lions, it’s just another summer. The team has held these kind of youth football camps every summer for the past 16 years.
The USA Football 2019 Protection Tour began Sunday in Philadelphia, the first of six stops this summer. The tour kicked off with nearly 200 youth players and their families out at the Philadelphia Eagles’ NovaCare Complex for a free event in which they learned the game’s fundamentals from some of the area’s top youth coaches and safety experts. The athletes were individually fit for helmets for the upcoming season by Riddell, and parents were educated on how to ensure their child has the proper protection to enjoy the fun and fitness of football.
Riddell recently unveiled Peoria High School as its Team of the Future to celebrate the launch of the 2019 Smarter Football program.

Some improvements have developed over a period of years, while others — particularly nowadays with so many steps forward in technology and analytics — happened rapidly and will continue to do so.
