OK, Prince Harry: Time to find your princess, get married, settle down and have lots of babies! (Take one look at these pics of him playing rugby with kids and tell us you don't agree!)

The 29-year-old royal joined a group of English schoolchildren at Inspire Suffolk, a community project serving Ipswich County, on Thursday. As you can see, he fully immersed himself playing offense and defense with the pint-size boys and girls.

Prince George's uncle didn't let his young opponents win just because they were kids, though—he played to win! Harry used his whole body to block a penalty shot from getting past him, shared winning tactics in group huddles and apparently, showed no mercy against his smaller opponents. One 9-year-old boy said, per the Daily Mail, the prince was "taking it quite seriously...He tackled me and won the ball, but I managed to tackle him back!"

Of course, though, Harry was a good sport. When an 8-year-old boy scored a goal against the royal's team, Harry "gave me a tap around the ear and said well done," said the youngster.

Another 9-year-old said the world's most eligible bachelor "was funny and making lots of jokes," while another opponent called him a "funny chap."

Funny, fit, good with kids, handsome—did we mention he's a prince? Harry's the baby daddy of our dreams!
