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.

Easier Practice Night
Only the Midgets (the oldest kids -- 11 & 12 year olds) had practice tonight. The other divisions had the night off. Thankfully, it was an easier practice. They still had to do all their drills, but then they worked on kick-offs and returns. The kids are all exhausted. It's been a long week, but they all kept working hard.
