Noah's Nerf Adventure
Posted: Wed Aug 24, 2011 5:06 pm
Noah & I spent the past weekend in Orlando as he participated in the Nerf Dart Tag World Championship. More than 23,000 kids age 8-17 applied to participate and Noah was one of only 168 (84 in his age group) to be selected.
It was an incredible experience. The competition was exciting and you can't beat a free flight to Orlando, complete with a great room at a WDW resort and Park Hopper passes to the parks!
Noah & his team, The Smart Darts, did not make it to the playoffs, but did well in their four round-robin matches. Most importantly, they had a ball.
Here's a short video clip (Noah tags an opponent as they grab the flag while Noah's teammate brings back the other team's flag for a score):
Might be a once-in-a-lifetime experience, but I suspect Noah will be trying to get back there in 2012!
