It’s Bowman’s first year playing flag football and she said she’s happy for the opportunity to compete. “I’ve always loved football,” she said. “My dad has always coached and I remember growing up and playing football with my cousins in the backyard.” Bowman, who also plays basketball, said she’s enjoyed the challenge of learning the quarterback position. “I went in thinking it would be a lot easier than it is,” Bowman said. “Passing deep balls and looking at defenses is so hard … I feel like I’ve adapted to it well and it’s so fun. I love my team.”The post Addison Bowman helps lead Rigby to flag football title appeared first on East Idaho News.
