Time to Learn a New Sport

My oldest grandson (Tyler) is playing Lacrosse for Manatee HS. It is a club sport for now, we are hoping that it becomes a sanctioned sport soon. This sport is very new to me and Pat as we have never followed it. The one thing I did learn is that it is as rough as football. It may be a little rougher as they have sticks and hit each other with them. They will be playing a lot of games  this year, so I may learn what the rules are all about. Tyler has an aunt that had a scholarship to Lafayette to play and she has helped him. He also has been to a clinic in Virginia a couple of years ago. He seems to really like it so we wish him well. He also is still playing Flag football each week......oh to be young again!

 Below you can see that Tyler is on the move. This game moves very fast at times and you need to be ready to take off.
 Before the game Tyler is preparing to pitch the ball during warm ups.
 Below Tyler is preparing to chase a pitch, he caught it but my camera is not fast enough to get it.
 Below is the best picture as far as I am concerned. Father and son walking together after a game. It does not get any better than that. That is one thing I never experienced as my pop always had to work. They will learn as they grow up just how great is was to have their dad involved with their sports.


 Below you can see Tyler on the move fixing to mix it up with the pack. It was easy for me to follow him, I just followed the red socks it really helped. By the way they played Pinewood or Pineville from Osprey Florida. They tied the game 6 to 6, not bad for the first game.


I will be watching the Super Bowl a little, I don't know who to pull for as there are Gators on both sides.

I hope you have a Blessed Week!
