Families are the compass that guide us. They are the inspiration to reach great heights, and our comfort when we occasionally falter. -- Brad Henry
Position 9
Our son is playing football for the first time in school athletics. He's a natural athlete, so they put him in a defense position called "9" that can either intercept passes, tackle the receiver, chase down the runner, or charge for a sack.
His jersey is #8.
The key to this position is reading the play correctly, which can be tricky for a new JV player. He must be good, though, because he's a starter and plays the entire game when defense is on the field.
He's had a blast so far, and it's been fun watching him play. I'm actually enjoying the football games now!
