A youth football team aged six to seven years old from Wallkill, a New York suburb, attempted to run through a banner before their game, but it didn’t go down as planned.

Parents made the banner to commemorate the team’s first home game of the season, but they failed to realize that the youngsters don’t have the strength to break it.

As a result, the kids ended up piling on top of each other.

It’s clear that football is taken seriously in Wallkill. Between the pre-game banner run and the juvenile cheerleaders, these kids are already experiencing all of the traditional rituals in college and the pros.
