Willow had her blue cap on, her computer, and her clipboard. It was not flag football practice without a clipboard. If that wasn't actually in the rules, Willow felt rather strongly that it should be.
"Hi everybody!" Willow said with a cheerful wave. "Welcome to today's flag football practice. Especially members of the blue team and especially certain members of the blue team who I'm not going to single out right now but suffice it to say that said blue teamer's name has a happy face next to it on my roster. Possibly little hearts too but that is neither here nor there nor in the middle. Never forget the middle. It counts on being forgotten and that's how it gets you. Trust me.
"Okay, so for today's practice I thought it would be fun if we kept things in a positive light - or positive darkness, if that's your illumination preference - and went over a key part of the game which is scoring touchdowns. Specifically what you do immediately after, which is a little victory dance of happy touchdowning joy.
"Sure, some may say that touchdown dances are easy, but they are a fine art unto themselves. Too short and nobody knows you're doing them. Too long and you come off as kind of smug and jerky. And then there's the issue of whether you do actual dance moves or make it up as you go. As for the latter, I'm open to you trying either but when making up your own dances please name them something other than the dirty bird because we'd like for this to be considered a family-friendly football game. 'nuff said."
Speech done, Willow clapped her hands and gave a happy bounce. "Okay, go practice! YAY TEAMS!"
