Eli and Owen both decided to take a break from soccer this season and try out flag football. They had some buddies on the team and were so excited to play. Owen played up with 3rd and 4th graders, so he was by far the smallest and youngest but he did not let that get in his way. Eli on the other hand started off the season with his broken arm and was not allowed to play in the first few games. He practiced with his team, but had to sit out the first few weeks. He was super pumped when he was able to jump in the game!
They both loved it!
But seriously, seeing him in that cute little uniform was enough for me.
But somewhere along the way, things started to click for him. He was really enjoying the game and wanted to improve to get the game ball. And let me tell you, he went from 0-10 so fast! He ended the season with TWO game balls. And his very last play? A home run!
His team did not win the championships, but they played hard, they had fun, and he is coming back for Spring Ball.
