Football coaching on shabbat

Shabbos

Question

Hello I'm 20 years old I live in the USA and I'm a follower of yahuahua. My question is can I coach high-school football mostly played on Friday nights? Or would that go against the holy sabbath?

Answer

Shalom,

It is permitted to play football on shabbat, however, professional games may involve numerous violations of shabbat. Consequently, a Jew who keeps shabbat may not participate in this activity.
