Gophers to open two football practices, but won’t have public spring game

The Gophers football program will have two open spring practices, but will not hold a public spring game this year.

The U said Tuesday it will open spring workouts, with the March 23 session open to members of the Dinkytown Athletes NIL collective and the April 11 session open to the general public.

Minnesota has not had a traditional spring game open to the public since 2017 due to weather and the pandemic interrupting the schedule and location every year since.

The Gophers said they will host a public fan event during fall preseason camp.

The Gophers’ practice on March 23 will start at 11 a.m. at Huntington Bank Stadium. The April 11 session will start at 4:30 at the Athletes Village. Fans are encouraged to bring diapers to help families in need. Both practice times and locations are subject to change.
