Stressing out about scheduling

My son loves football and really wants to play. This is his first year and I was surprised to find out it is 4 days per week.

Then he has religion with his best friend one day which is the same day as one of his football practices. Only 15 minutes between, giving him barely enough time to travel and change and he would not be able to eat dinner until 8 pm! He could have a snack before practice.

He is begging me to keep him in the same religion class as his best friend, but I just don't see how this will work. Of course football ends in November leaving him with the rest of the yr of religion.

Add cubscouts to the mix and my head is spinning.

What would you do about the religion class?

He is only in first grade. Input would be greatly appreciated.

Anyone else feeling overwhelmed with schedule??

TIA

I don't have boys and I don't know about football, but just by reading your post, I'm thinking "football practice in 1st grade?? and if there is football practice 4 days a week???" I'm not sure why they do that? Sorry, I'm not help but it does sound like a lot, unless both he is having lot of fun and it's not stressful on you.

It does get kinda crazy
DD has soccer practice almost everyday she is on 2 teams so its basically everyday ....some days she comes home from schoo eats a pb&j or granola bar and she is out the door some days she is home does hw and eats dinner then its practice

I just make sure I have apple slices,string cheese,granola bars and oranges on hand on the crazy days
