The weather is turning cooler and game day has finally arrived in the jungle. Leo Lion and Tenarious Tiger were voted the coach and the captain of their football teams. Tiger is very fired up because Lion’s team has won three years in a row. All of the animals on both teams have been working very hard to get in shape and prepare for the big game. They all know the importance of being physically fit in order to play their best and help their team win the game. So, buckle up your chin strap and let’s see if Tiger can pull off the upset this year. Who will be the heroes, who will win The Jungle Football Game, and who will be voted the much desired Most Valuable Player Award? Join Coach Bobby Agee as he introduces children to the greatest American game of all—football. Through the use of their favorite jungle animals, the children will learn some of the basic concepts and skills of the game, such as touchdowns, extra points, kickoffs, blocking, tackling, and kicking the football.
