First Flag Football Games!

Ben was excited to play flag football this year. It's his first time playing sports like this. He's loving it so far and even saw a little action in the first game. One kid will hand off the ball to the "quarterback", then the quarterback will hand off the ball to the kid behind him. That kid will then run and try to get a touchdown. Ben got to be that kid, so he got to run!  The coach told him to run to the side and then head up toward the other end, that way he'd be out of the way of the big group of on coming kids.
 
Ben got the ball and ran to the side......and kept running to the side, forgetting to turn up and head towards the goal.  Hahaha. It was cute. He did great and still felt proud that he was one of few who got to run with the ball that day. Success for our first game. He already says he wants to do it again next year. OKAY!
This was the second game. Go Ben! Lots of running and a little learning, but all fun.
