After a lot of prayer and thought I have decided that at the end of this season I will be stepping down as President of Tatum Youth Football.
This decision wasn’t made lightly. I am incredibly proud of what I have accomplished over the last two years and so thankful for every person who has supported me, helped me, volunteered, coached, encouraged me and trusted me along the way.
I have poured so much of my heart into TYF and it has poured so much right back into me. But I also believe there are seasons for everything and after this year I feel like it’s time for me to step back and allow a new fresh face with new energy and ideas to take the reins and continue moving this league forward.
We still have a lot of football left this season and I fully intend to give it everything I have until the very end.
If you feel like TYF is something you would be interested in taking on next year please reach out to me. I would love to talk with you about what the role entails, have you shadow me the rest of this year and help make the transition as smooth as possible.
Next year will be Cowboy’s last year in Tatum Youth Football before he moves on to play for the middle school. So I won’t be gone I’ll still be loud and proud in the stands while he plays his last year of little league
Thank you for everything y’all have poured into me while I’ve had the privilege of pouring my heart into this league and these kids.
We’re not finished yet. Let’s make the rest of this season one to remember🏈
