the Super Bowl of Flag Football

Finally.... the day had come that Oliver had been talking about since before the season began, the Super Bowl (of flag football).  When you're six and you've played three seasons with the same team, it does feel like the Super Bowl of Championship Games.
The Dragons went into the game without losing a single game in three seasons.  NOT ONE SINGLE GAME!!  You could say that they did so well this season because they were teetering on the high end of the age range, but what would you have said three seasons ago?  When you watch these boys play, you say that these boyz have SKILZ!

The Dragons, before the Big Game!!
Owen M, Chase, Owen H, Oliver, Preston, Colby, Caleb, Robbie
These boys sure have grown to be a great team.
The boys knew that this would be the toughest game of the season and the one with the highest stakes.  Who wants to lose after a three season winning streak?  Not the Dragons.  They hit the field with focus and determination.
Once again, the flags were flying.


It was the first weekend in November and the boys were wearing shorts.  It was AWESOME!  We really lucked out with the weather and had true Super Bowl sunshine.
This was an attempted interception by Oliver.  You may recall at the beginning of the season that Colby caught the leagues first interception for this age group.  Oliver was ready to claim one of his own.  See the ball to the top right?


He didn't get the interception, but he did interrupt a pass by the offense.  A great play in our book.
One last cheer for the Dragons!

After another outstanding season, the Dragons took home their third championship trophy with three undefeated seasons.  This is the last season for this group as many of the kids are moving into the next age group, but maybe they will meet up again in the near future.  They truly exemplified team work, focus, determination and champions.  
Coach Ben, Chase, Colby, Nick, Caleb, Oliver, Preston, Owen H, Coach Chester, Owen M
Oliver was SO happy to have a third championship trophy.
We were SO SO SO proud of him!!
Just the other day he was seriously debating on which position he would play for the Broncos; Quarter Back or Running Back.  We are curious to know ourselves.
GO DRAGONS!!!!
