I’ve heard of junior high travel teams for basketball, baseball, soccer and volleyball, but football? A junior high team from Delaware, led by seventh-grade quarterback David Sills, is coming to the San Fernando Valley on Thursday to play West Hills Chaminade in a football game, then take on North Hollywood Harvard-Westlake on Saturday.

Sills has already gotten mentioned at SI.com.

Sills’ private coach is Steve Clarkson. If this is the future, buy stock in Nike and the airline companies.
