My youngest Nathan started 5 & 6th grade youth league tackle football a few weeks ago. This is his first organized sport of any kind & is just out of his mind with loving it. He's always been the video game & inside type, but at my insistance and prodding he decided to go for it.
They had their 'jamboree' yesterday. all teams got 10 offensive and 10 defensive plays. Each team played everyone else. 5 games was a long day...lol. This wasn't really a serious series of games, it was more to get their feet wet in a real game situation and see what it was like. I got to help out & even got some decent pics.
There is even a girl on the team, she's a 6th grader & tips the scales at #170ish. Her second year on the titans & this little lady just loves knockin the boys around...lol We are lucky to have her.
