7th Grade Football

7th Grade Football was a bit rough this year. Brandon made the team only to learn that in 7th grade they have TWO teams. They constantly switch the players between teams to give them a chance to play different positions and to keep the skill level even. The players had it rough with winter coming so soon this year and they froze their little tushes off! Literally! I think Brandon lost about 5 lbs just shivering!
He had a blast AND got number 80 which is his all time favorite. He did have to sacrifice a lot to be in football though, and that part he didn't like so much. He had to give up Bass lessons, Civil Air Patrol for 3 months and any hope at a social life. With practice every day, it didn't leave much time for much else. We'll see if he plays next year. I think it will be a tough decision between the sport he loves and all the other stuff he loves!
