Saturday Trevor had a football game. We had to be there at 9:00 am for the 11:00 game. I'm not sure WHY they have to be there that early since they just stand around for an hour. One hour would be plenty early. He made weight just fine. The game started and they just had him sitting on the side lines. Finally towards the end of the game they put him in. He played 2 plays and then they took him out again! So let's just recap this.
Tuesday practice from 6:00-8:00
Wednesday practice from 6:00-8:00
Thursday practice from 6:00-8:00
Saturday game actual playing time 11:45-11:47
Something is wrong with this picture don't you think??
Not to mention what all he's went through to get his weight down so he could play and all the money we paid to get him on the team and the extra things he needed. I WILL be talking to the coaches tomorrow at practice. That is just rediculous! The kids are 6-8 years old and they should be playing an equal amount of time on the field. Especially since it's "non competitve" and they "don't keep score" (my ass!)
After the game I went over to my brother's house for my
Once the other girl got there they started the shower and the hostess girl had wine and snacks that went with the wines. Everyone got slightly tipsy! My mom ended up walking home after the shower (she only lives a couple of blocks away). I stayed and hung out with my niece for awhile since my brother was gone somewhere. We had a nice time hanging out and Trevor spent the night over there with my nephew.
As I was reading this I was thinking...highschool...6-8 year olds??? yes, that is ridiculous!
