The non-contact practice sessions will be held in Spartan Stadium, and one of the fantasy camp highlights is the player introductions by the public address announcer. All practice gear – including game jerseys, shoes and authentic keepsakes – will be provided while having the opportunity to dress in the new locker room.
New this year is an option for the fantasy campers to play a round of golf with current Spartan football players and coaches. This event will take place on the morning of June 12 at College Fields Golf Course in Okemos.
