Flag Football Update

The old Flag Football season has flown by. Sampson has had his first three games already and is adjusting to the game. It is neat to see him learn because obviously he has had no training in the game and really doesn't show an interest in watching. He hasn't done too badly for a first year kid, he is really over shadowed by some of the older kids who have played already and really know what they are doing. He hasn't gotten a flag yet or carried the ball in a game. When he has carried the ball in practice he has gone in the wrong direction, thus the need for him to play on the line. He is definitely going to have to work to get better, but he is on a team with really good coaches and they have really worked with the kids to get them better in their first three games. We ran around in the back Saturday and he had to 'touch' me down and he made me force a fumble or else he scored a touch down. We also played around with the heavy bag and a trash can where he had to push the trash can out of the way and rip the 'flags' off the heavy bag. Anyway we are down to playoff time, and we got the first round on Saturday and then the following Saturday is the Championship. I'll post some pics when I get a chance.
