Friends, Family, & our BCF Fit Fam,
Please mark your calendars and carve out a couple hours this SATURDAY at 6:00pm to come cheer and support a very special team and special kid!!! I know it’s Thanksgiving weekend and time to celebrate with family and friends which is why I would never ask unless it was for some VERY special reasons....
As a father I try very hard to NOT be that “Dad”. You know the crazy LOUD parent that people scoot away from in the stands. Once in a while if I feel the need I move myself up with the other crazy loud dads😂. I don’t post a lot personally on social media about my son although I can’t say the same for Bethany posting on my page 🤷🏻♂️ and I try hard to keep my pride for my son close to my vest in public. Instead I pour my effort into being the Dad that is around when no one else is because I know that’s where all the real growth and magic happens. It’s also how I know he deserves our support!
I have been there rebounding shots for him at 6:45am before school starts, then helping him prepare & perform his workouts at 7:30pm, before he goes home and starts his homework at 9:00pm, followed by chores at 10:00pm because that’s generally the only time he has left to help the family. All of that is in addition to the demands of keeping straight A’s in honor classes and regular team practices t whatever sports season he is in. There’s a reason Tyler gets stronger as the game goes along and is relentless in chasing quarterbacks all over the field! He pours every ounce of energy he has into his preparation for the opportunity to line up with his teammates and help his team WIN! And winning is what this team has done all the way to the State Championship!! But football isn’t a one man sport, it’s the ultimate TEAM sport! This is a group of talented young athletes that have all bought into the TEAM and have made the necessary sacrifices to have the opportunity to play for something special! An opportunity to do something t athlete in any sport dreams of from every generation (past, present and future). An opportunity to play for a State Championship and to walk off the field holding the title so many of us dreamed of but so few get the honor of holding...State Champs!
These are the reasons I am asking you to set aside a couple hours next Saturday to come together and cheer Tyler, these boys, and this amazing team! Bethany will post all the details soon, but our hope is that when Tyler looks up into those stands next Saturday there will be NO doubt where his friends, family, and BCF fitfam are sitting!💪🏼👊🏼
Go Braves!!
