Not All Practices Are Afternoons

One big change this year is not every practice will be in the afternoon.  In the past, fans have been able to experience all practices during the mid-afternoon hours.

This year the schedule has been changed up a bit.  Outside of the Red-White Practice, there are only a grand total of four open practices in the afternoon.

Those dates are Saturday July 28th from 1:30 p.m. – 4:00 p.m., Thursday August 2nd from 3:00 p.m. – 5:15 p.m, Monday August 6th from 3:00 p.m. – 5:15 p.m., and Monday August 13th from 3:00 p.m. – 5:15 p.m.  That will be quite an adjustment for some people.

The other open practices will take place on Sunday July 29th from 8:00 a.m.-10:40 a.m., Monday July 30th 8:00 a.m. – 10:40 a.m., Wednesday August 8th and Thursday August 9th from 8:00 a.m. -10:40 am.

That’s it folks.  Just eight open practices outside of the Red-White Practice.  Certainly a departure from years past.
