PHOENIX — After a week and a half of uncertainty for thousands of kids in the Arizona National Youth Sports Tackle Football League, many members of the community came together to help make sure their season continued.
The Valley’s NYS league was in limbo as families say the head of the local NYS left them in the dark and did not schedule games like they were supposed to last week. Luckily, the season didn’t have to end early. The Phoenix Union High School District worked with the Phoenix Dragons Youth Football organization and gave them the Camelback High School field to play on. Usually, the NYS tackle football league would rent it out and schedule it for thousands of dollars. However, Camelback High head football coach Brandon McNutt said they were able to waive the fees for the team.“We want them to be able to finish their season.
“Every morning, he’s like, do you know where we’re going to have a game this week?” mom Angie Thornburg said of her eight-year-old son in the league. “I’m like no. The day we found out, he was so happy.”
