Injuries are accidents that are gonna happen at any sport or any given game... I DID not appreciate my child being kicked 2 times, being tackled was another thing.. football is a contact sport... just not steel tipped cleats being pushed into his stomach on purpose...... Poor sportmanship... I would say that same thing had it been him (my own child) kicking another child. As for being taught what to do... they are being taught... the Little League program in Phelps should speak for itself... they were county champs BACK TO BACK until last year and Belfry beat them by 2 points... Yep... a school (not doggin Belfry) that has 4 or 5 feeder schools beat little ol' Phelps by 2 points!!
This is going to be a building year... we have 13 7th graders... and the rest 8th... and OH.. BTW.. how many freshman did P'ville play against us?? YEP... I know there were out there because I have a family member whose child is on the team and he is a freshman!! and UH... last year I can remember bringing some of our kids off our little league team over there and playing a team from P'ville and beating them 42-12.... It's a game.... my child wants to play and as long as the adults on the field conduct themselves in a decent manner the children will follow... I personally would have liked to have told the ref's a mouthfull... and you would have to know me... I really dont' care to do that!!!!! LOLOLOL....

This is my last post and I am done. If you think that Pikeville is going to play freshmen against Phelps you are out of your mind!! I told you that I didn't have anything against Phelps, I was just curious to as to see if programs like theirs got enough benefit out of football to keep it going. I didn't want to know about Pikeville playng dirty. Come on....the Phelps varsity got beat 79-6 by Shelby Valley and the jr. high is going to get someone hurt. Someone needs to take a stand if they can't compete!
