Flag Football

Every Saturday for the past few weeks we wake up and head to the YMCA where Zeke, JJ and Noah are involved in flag football.

This is the second year for Zeke. He plays on the Jaguars. He is doing great and has learned a lot since last year. His friend Max plays on his team too!

JJ and Noah play together on the Panthers in the PreK-Kindergarten league. This is JJ's second year and he has also improved. He keeps his head in the game and listens to his coaches. He has even scored three touchdowns and come close on a couple of other runs! When he gets the ball he takes off running and when we see him on the sidelines he is always excited to point out how fast he ran!

Noah is in his first year. Noah is having fun! The coaches work weekly with him and the other younger players to help them understand things like, the word "hike" means go in football and when you are on defense your only job is to get the flag of the player with the ball. The first time he got the ball this year the coach (after needing to remind him several times that it was his turn to get the ball) he took it and started running away from his endzone... He is learning though and having fun!
