Football team member
A football team member (Noah Kane) with a football.
Football team member is a career track in The Sims 4: High School Years. It is classified as an afterschool activity that is only available to teens. Completing this career track awards the Star Player trait, which makes the fitness skill increase faster and guarantees an Athletics scholarship when applying to university[TS4:DU].
The team meets from 3:30 PM to 5:30 PM on Monday and Wednesday for practice, and competes in a game every Friday. Sims can progress through the career track by leveling up their fitness skill and practicing with a football.
The cheer team members are rivals of the football team, and the "Rivals" relationship bit will be visible in rival Sims' profiles.

Chance Cards[]
Like all other career tracks and afterschool activities in The Sims 4, there are chance cards for the football team. However, one major difference is that each option the player can choose from has only one possible outcome, rather than the typical two possible outcomes: success and failure. The chance cards are available for football team members at any level, and appear on practice days. Six of the chance cards are generic, meaning they are available to all four afterschool activities. The two other chance cards are specific to the football team. There are no fame chance cards.
On Fridays, Sims will participate in a football game. A pop-up notification similar to regular chance cards will appear, informing the player of whether their team lost or won the competition. These chance cards have only one response for the player to select, and the outcome is always the same.
Like usual, the outcome of chance cards can have an effect on a Sim's emotions and afterschool activity performance. Chance cards can also affect a Sim's relationship with their teammates, rivals, or crush. If The Sims 4: Parenthood is installed, character values will sometimes be affected.

| Stretching is really key to being at top performance for team activities. Being sure to keep a balance of mental and physical health is very important! However, <Sim name> may have forgotten to do some much needed self-care time and stretch it out before going into practice today. Even though being a top achiever feels great and often portrayed as high reward, taking care of <himself/herself> should come first. <Sim name> will remember to take a stretch break next time. | |
| Will be mindful next time! | |

| <Sim name>'s team decided it would be a good idea to have the rival team attend practice so the pressure of a crowd could prepare everybody for an upcoming match. When practice started, <Sim name> started to hear soft mumbles coming from the guest team. <He/She> paid it no mind at first but the mumbles grew into louder petty insults. While <Sim name> knows this is very immature, <he/she> kept <his/her> cool and continued to concentrate... not the same composure could be held by <his/her> teammates though. One of them lunged at one of the rival team members, starting a nasty fight. | |

After successfully moving the ball in the 4th quarter, Copperdale is lined up for a game winning drive. <Sim name> who was paying attention in practice, realizes that the coach has called their featured play where they line up at Tight End. The play goes just as planned. The opposing team falls for the play fake and <Sim name> is wide open. The quarterback throws an accurate pass and <Sim name> catches the football successfully. <Sim name> notices a rare opportunity in the open field and a chance to score the game winning touchdown.
