Michigan football announces practice open to public week before spring game

Are you a Michigan football fan? Are you football deprived? Are you sad we are still five months away from the start of the 2019 season?

Us, too! Thankfully, the Michigan football program is opening up a couple practices for the fans to see up close.

The first practice open to the public is set for Saturday, April 6. The gates open at 1:30 p.m. and the practice begins at 2:15 p.m.

The second open practice is the annual spring game, which was closed to the public last year due to bad weather. This year’s spring game is Saturday, April 13. The gates open at 4 p.m. and the game begins at 5 p.m.

I find it really cool Michigan is doing this for their fans. Not every school in the country is willing to throw together a couple spring practices that are open to the public. If you are excited to see Michigan’s new offense under Josh Gattis, or are wondering how the defense is looking without Rashan Gary, Devin Bush and Chase Winovich, I would go check out one, or both, of these open practices.
