Before high school football teams start practicing in the Arizona heat, it’d be wise to see a film that PBS aired on Monday.

The movie, 108 Degrees — Critical Response, expertly focuses on how heat related illnesses affect high school athletes. Football practice for a lot of Arizona’s high school football teams begins next week, just as the highest temperatures of this summer are being recorded.

Here’s a link to view the film. 

The film was produced by the Arkansas Educational Television Network.
