Prepping for the big leagues

I find it very interesting to watch the younger football players in the area. Before the minor league was created a few years ago, there was no place for elementary players to play the game. Now, they can play in a structured league with professional coaches, preparing them for the high school football leagues. And let's face it. Around here, high school football is huge. Talented players become small-town celebrities during their time as high school seniors.
