Dot Day

Starting small is big

This summer I took my eight year-old son to a football camp at Atwood Stadium Upon our arrival we walked up to the entrance of the football field and he stopped in his tracks I asked him what is wrong why are you stopping lets go play you are the one that wanted to come here so badly He shrugged his shoulders as if he were spooked by ghost or monsters There was a nice lady at the gate that invited my son in to play and to take a  team jersey but he did not budge I explained to her I didn't know what was wrong but the two of us would be back So me and my son took off in my car and I asked him was he scarred and he replied yes I told him he have an opportunity to play at Atwood Stadium where high schools colleges and even professional teams play This would be your field from eight years old until high school not too many people are able to say that After high school you will play in the Big House and them you will be drafted into the NFL He listen quietly and after a moment of complete silence proudly said to me lets go back 



My sons is the team captain and they won their first game this past Saturday
