NFL Season Almost Over

MY NFL FLAG PACKERS TEAM

So, this was a really enjoyable NFL Flag football season for me.  Maybe it was the fact that I had so many new players who I was able to interact with. Maybe it was the fact that the weather was really nice and I didn't feel so bad out there. Maybe, just maybe it was the fact that I didn't put too much worry on the outcome of the games since, like the show, "Who's Line Is It Anyways?", the points don't matter.

I kept the play book simple and made sure that every kid had the chance to do something productive.  I let a parent try to teach the ZONE Defense during practice even if I didn't feel that it would really work in this kind of format. I didn't argue with other coaches, or parents or even the players for a matter of fact.  I just went out there and coached and felt like I did make a difference to some of the kids.  

We still have two more games to play but I figured I would sit down and write this out now before the season ends and I'm left with a void till the regular Flag season starts.  I am really blessed that I am able to coach these kids and that after the season is over some of them will remember me as the coach that believed in their abilities.  I know that not every kid feels that way, but, hey... I'm only human.

Till next season!
