Football

Football is one my favorite sports. I started playing football in 2nd grade when I wasn't supposed to. The normal grade to start playing tackle football is 3rd grade, but somehow my friend and I got to start playing in 2nd grade. Since it was everybody's first year playing we weren't that good. We lost a lot of games and won some. The next year my other friends played with us and we got a little better at the game. The time when my team started to get a lot better was in 4th, 5th, and 6th grade. We went undefeated 3 years in a row. 

During my 6th grade year my friend and I were asked to play with another team in a tournament. The team we got asked by was the one team that was the hardest we played all year. My friend and I thought that he would be playing quarterback, but when we went to the first practice he was playing on the offensive line. I was still playing tailback, but I shared the position with their tailback. In the games we would switch out. So when he got tired I would go in and when I got tired he would go back. On defense I would play defensive end. It was a fun position because all I had to do was blitz the quarterback every time.

I just started playing football in 7th grade and so far we have played 2 games. Our first game we lost to our rivals by 30. Our second game we only got to play the 2 quarters because it started to lightning. The score of that game was 33-0. My next game is against a team from Larned. It's pretty far from where I live. My coach said that they are really athletic. I hope we beat them.
