The Aggie football team will begin spring drills on Saturday, Mar. 2. Spring drills are closed to the public with a couple of exceptions.
The Aggie Youth Experience is a free youth clinic scheduled for Saturday, Mar. 23 for children ages 8-to-13. (Children cannot be enrolled in 9th grade or above to comply with NCAA rules and regulations.) Participants receive instruction in fundamentals from the Aggie football players. Registration is free but limited to the first 500 participants. LINK BELOW

The Friday Night Lights event is open and free of charge and scheduled for Friday, Apr. 5. This will include a scrimmage held at Kyle Field. Coach Sumlin encourages all fans to attend, but would especially love to see the student side of the stadium near capacity.
The Maroon & White Spring Game, presented by Wells Fargo, is free to college age students and under, while adult general admission tickets are $5. Fans are encouraged to go to AggieAthletics.com or 12thManFoundation.com and click on tickets to purchase tickets ahead of the game and avoid lines prior to the event.
