Owen's Last Football Game of the Season 10-18-08

Posted by Picasa
Well, the season is over and Team Pifer is incredibly sad this football season has ended. I think we all had a great time with this new experience of Owen playing football this year. We all had such a fabulous time learning about Pop Warner Football and how it worked and getting to know the great volunteers and coaches. We couldn't have asked for anything better. Our coaching staff for our team was incredible. We had 6 very knowledegable and dedicated coaches which truly were a gift to these boys. Every boy had a great time playing, learned the game and grew as individuals. It was such a great experience!
Our last game was exciting because Owen's Great Uncle Chuck and his friend Chris came to watch his game along with my two girlfriends from PA were here to witness the "O-Train" in action! It was a good game and our defense came alive for their best game all season. We had several good plays and several first downs this game but unfortunately no touchdowns this game.
Although we didn't win one game all season it sure didn't feel that way. Our team improved each game and everyone felt like a winner every game. No one ever was disappointed with our team, everyone was excited to see the growth and enthusiasm of our team. Owen truly found his niche and love of football (wonder where that came from?) and really showed determination and effort every play of every game. He had 3 of our 4 touchdowns this season--we are so very proud of him! Go Owen and Go Storm!!
