As a player fresh out of her first (and only) DSFL season, I feel like I can have some valuable advice to give to any new rookies. The NSFL and DSFL are wonderful leagues, but if you don’t know your way around, you can very easily get lost in the shuffle or potentially cripple your career before it can take off. I think that I would take some rookies for a day tour around a few stadiums, into locker rooms and into the offices of many different coordinators. If there’s one advantage that the NSFL has over competitor leagues, it’s the alumni support - players past and present will almost always line up to help and guide rookies as they take the first steps of their professional careers. I think that this will also stress the importance of teamwork and fair play to the rookies. Many a team culture has been crippled by showboating or selfish actions - it’s a team sport, and individual heroics always come after the success of the team itself. But most important of all, this can show the rookies how to have fun! Each team has a unique and vibrant locker room culture, and exposure to the kinds of fun and activities that go on in these rooms is something every rookie should have. I’d introduce the rookies to some teammates so that they can gain valuable one on one advice and perspectives from older stars.
