California moves closer to becoming first state to ban tackle football for kids under 12
Briefly

"On and after January 1, 2026, a youth sports organization that conducts a tackle football program, or a youth tackle football league, shall not allow a person younger than 12 years of age to be a youth tackle football participant through the organization or league."
Research has shown tackle football causes brain damage, and the risk increases the longer people play the sport. Repeated concussions can cause chronic traumatic encephalopathy, which has been documented through brain studies of numerous deceased football players.
