The kids are now in pads, and the real hitting will start on Saturday, after the required 10 hours are met by the kids. If they do not have 10 hours in, they will not be able to hit. So, if it looks like your son is not participating in some drills, keep that in mind.
Also, some of the teams have Varsity help. The 5th grade team will have Damien Van Altena, a varsity lineman (and former AAYFL player), helping out on a semi-regular basis. The 6th grade team had Tyler Whitemore, a varsity tight end (and former AAYFL wide receiver) helping out with receivers last night; he will be helping on a semi-regular basis. The 7th grade is scheduling a varsity quarterback to help out with QB drills.
And, occasionally, we may have a varsity coach help out as well.
So keep your eyes out as practices evolve over the next week into hitting with pads on. Also, since we will be able to hit, you will see some new drills we have not run yet!
