Scrimmage

We scrimmaged another town last night, each team ran 10 plays on offense in a row. The kids seemed to think it was a tie 21-21 but we never moved the ball for down and distance so I think maybe each side had three big plays.

Our defense looked pretty good for not having a lot of live practice.

I coach the offensive line mostly, they had an uneven effort. How do you get 5 soft suburban 10 year olds to act like bullies when all they are told to do every day is be nice?

That is why I love youth football. For three months the kids get to do what they are always told not to do. Keep your hands to yourself, no pushing, no bullying, stop running, no hitting. It is a perfect release for the kids but they just don't know how to unleash.

Back to practice for three more nights and we play a double header on Sunday since we are hosting the Jamboree and there is an odd number of towns.
