Game Plan for Life

There are a number of “feel good“ videos about high school athletics currently on the market, but none as emotionally charged as this one. This 4-minute production captures the essence of high school athletics with fast-paced sports     action, high energy music and special graphics. It opened the 1998 National Conference of High School Directors of Athletics in Las Vegas and received an overwhelming response. If you are looking for a piece that spotlights high school athletics and its values, then this video is a must. As with other NFHS videos, it is ideal for opening athletic banquets, booster club meetings, assemblies, civic club meetings, or parent meetings.
