So are YOU ready for some football? MATT IS!! This year Matt decided he wanted to try playing football instead of soccer. We were a little (I mean a lot) worried about it, but Matt wanted to try something new and as he put it, "I want to just hit real hard!" So Matt is now a Horsham Hawk!
And so he's off with full gear - helmet, pads and the works! Go knock 'em dead, Matt! (Not literally though.)
Matt was having a little trouble carrying the bag. How is he going to be WEARING all that stuff?
Matt's ready to play! That beautiful smile even shines through the helmet!
I was quite surprised at how much conditioning they do during practice. They spend the first half of practice running, doing sit ups, doing "high knees" and more running!
Matt's helping out his teammate with sit-ups!
These are "high knees"
Matt takes a break with a chug of powerade! (We are deciding how much powerade stock we should purchase between the 2 boys and 3 sports.)Let the hitting begin! Matt's learning how to tackle. This is how he does it -
1. Hawks ready, set
2. GO!
It's really what he's dreamed of his whole life - hitting hard WITHOUT getting in trouble!
We can't wait for the season to start! GO HAWKS!!
