Tuesday Practice cancelled Thunderstorms


Alex lucked out today no practice. because of the weather...actually We the parents /grandparents lucked out we would have been soaked


Im a little concerned the practices are not as hard as last year...hope it doesn't affect us in our first double header game this coming Sunday against Team 21 and our arch Rival Team 2.


Well when Im not watchin over Alex and Payton ...Im watchin over Jr(golden) Ollie(lab) and gabbi(pug) They get bored on rainy days...

Hitting starts











Alex started hitting today....They hot blocking dummies and some light tackling...Alex shows improvement over last year...hes' not as tentative and is slightly more aggressive. I told him he had to be if he plans on playing 'running back' ..His new position Hes pretty siked about it.




On another note The practices don't seem as hard as last year....I hope this does not come back to bite us ....I hope we are ready when the games start...in about 1 week.








In our coaches defense we did not have as much time this year we had 1 entire we less practice time...so we spent 3 days of running and now we start hitting and plus the boys need to be assigned their positions and learn the plays...that's a ton for 10 yr old boys to learn in a few weeks Heck...I cant even keep up with it although Alex seems to be doing fine.








Saturdays here so we get a break until Monday...no doubt I will be practicing with Alex over the weekend..."WHEN IS MY BREAK"
