First "Orange" practice

Today we announced the split between the Orange and Black teams. I reiterated to the Orange team that the coaches attempted to pick the teams equally, and that there is an Orange and a Black team, not an "A" team and a "B" team.

We could finally begin installing plays with our respective teams. The kids picked it up pretty well, all things considered. I was especially pleased with the fact that we went the entire practice without any fumbles taking place during the QB-Center exchange.

A reminder to all parents: 6th Grade Orange scrimmages at Grafton on Saturday, 8/15/09. I will hand out details at practice tomorrow, but the scrimmages start at 9AM and go until noon (behind Grafton High School, located on highway 60). We ask players to arrive at 8AM for warmups and walk-throughs.

Any questions, please contact me. The scrimmage will be a great opportunity to show the coaches how the players can apply what they have learned in a more intense setting.

See everybody at practice tomorrow!
