Carlos this year decided to play Flag football and he had a great team and they sure learned a ton. He loved playing and scoring touchdowns. I don't know how many touchdowns he made this season but he was a fast little runner. Grandma loved watching his little legs fly to the end zone.
Carlos all bundled up for his game. He is always ready to go in and play.
Carlos Ready for a hand off or blocking for the quarterback.
Carlos running a touchdown. Once he is out of reach of any player he is like a rocket. Running to the end zone. No one can catch him.
Carlos running so fast and making a touchdown. This was his second touchdown of this game.
Carlos getting ready and watching to make sure that his quarterback is protected and gets the throw off. He was a real helper in protecting Carson, the quarterback. They made a great team.
Carlos and Carson making a two point conversion. They got very good at this play. In all Carlos is looking forward to next season and wants to play soccer too. He misses it so next season he will play Competitive soccer like his brother in a division one up from his own age with our neighbor. The fun and learning that occurs during a team sport is great for these kids.

Yes, I have decided there is a simple kind of elegance in flag football. They still get to do all the plays and strategy... they just don't tackle. It can still be pretty aggressive without the deliberate aggressiveness. Youngsters shouldn't be playing a game that compromises their growth plates and the development of their bones and their heads. It is silly not to play a safer version of the game and not very wise either. I did love watching Carlos play. He is very good at it and is a good runner and he has those legs you always see on television of the guys that run the ball for a touchdown. Carlos says that they are the "backs". See, he knows stuff. Love that kid. Love, Mom
