LAWRENCE, Kan. – It’s officially spring football season at the University of Kansas. Head Coach Lance Leipold kicked off his first spring practice with the Jayhawks at 6 a.m. Monday morning with the first of 15 up-tempo practices. Spring practice will culminate in exciting fashion at 1 p.m. on April 9 at David Booth Kansas Memorial Stadium with the Kansas Football Spring Preview, where fans will get an up-close look at the 2022 Kansas Jayhawks on a day that will feature football and family fun.

Admission to the Spring Preview is free and no ticket required.

Memorial Stadium will be an exciting place to be during a picture-perfect time of year to feature the Jayhawks as they prepare for Leipold’s second season in 2022. Kansas fans are eagerly invited to attend and get an up-close look at the Jayhawks, while enjoying a day of fun.

On top of some good ol’ fashioned football, there will be no shortage of activities surrounding Memorial Stadium on a day loaded with family activities.

Fan activities and events scheduled for the day include:

  • The Kids Zone: Located on the team’s practice field, the Kids Zone will open at 11 a.m., and will consist of inflatables and interactive games. It will stay open until 1 p.m.
