First Flag Football Game!
September 9, 2006I am coaching my son Bugga’s flag football team this year. This is second grade level seven on seven. This morning at 8:00 am we had our first game, which we won 14-6. This first play of the game Bugga threw a pass for a first down to the other coaches kid. The play was “Fake Dive Right, TE Quick Pass” as passing rarely happens at this level in Flag Football, to come out with a completed pass as the first play is fairly big.
Bugga played really well, had a number of flag pulls and actually intercepted a pass on the other teams 5 yd line and ran it all the way back down the field and did a sommersault dive into the end-zone for a TD.
This year I am letting the assistant coach take care of the Defense and I actually walk off the field and work with the kids on the sidelines. Last year I had to do it all and it was a lot more stressful, I think we are going to have a lot of fun this year. (see past posts related to winning & fun)
