Timothy is 12 years old and autistic. His journey began in 2013 when he attended the Philadelphia Eagles Huddle Up for Autism event. He became an Eagles fan for life. Just a few weeks later, he was assigned a new behavioral specialist who is also a football coach. He thought it would be a good experience for Timothy to play football. We spent months preparing him to be a part of the football team, and he is surpassing all of our expectations with his hard work, persistence, and dedication.
An Unforgettable and Undefeatable Season

Determination
Timothy has shown tremendous determination again this week in practice. It's been a tough week, but through it all, he's never considered giving up. The past two nights, the 6th grade defense has gone up against the 7th grade offense. There's a big size difference between Timothy and those 7th graders! He's gotten tackled to the ground many times, but has always gotten right back up and tried again. I couldn't possibly be more proud of him. :)
