They were perfecting the base for the new turf that was installed.  In any project, your base is crucial.  Jesus said "You are Peter, and on this rock, I will build my Church." Matthew 16:18.

In the future, Crusader Junior Football players will be the rock that Kapaun will build great teams upon. The knowledge and skills they gain now will allow players to contribute sooner to Kapaun's football program when they arrive. In addition, our team's work now will pay dividends during future Friday nights.  This year, we had close to 100 tackle football players from 3rd to 6th grade ready for practice to start.  We also had many 1st and 2nd-grade flag players looking forward to putting pads on in the future.
