Complete A-Day Weekend Schedule Set
2/9/2005 12:00:00 AM | Football
TUSCALOOSA, Ala. -- A full schedule of weekend activities is on tap at the Capstone for the weekend of March 17, 18, 19 and 20, highlighted by the annual A-Day football game set for 2 p.m. on March 19.
"We have a lot of activities scheduled," said Alabama Athletics Director Mal Moore, "there will be something for just about everyone."
On tap that weekend will be competition showcasing the men's and women's Tennis teams, Gymnastics, Softball, Baseball and A-Day activities. The Tide men's and women's Track and Field teams will be hosting the Alabama Relays Thursday through Sunday.
"It will be an excellent time for our fans to enjoy a full assortment of college sports," Moore added, "but there are several construction projects underway that could impact parking for those events. We hope everyone will be patient with those situations. The construction is temporary, but the end result will provide new facilities that will benefit our athletic programs for years to come."
There will be no motor home parking in the Coliseum or Bryant Drive lots at anytime on Friday. Tide fans are also reminded that the Athletic Ticket and TIDE PRIDE Offices have been temporarily relocated to the old Capstone Medical Center (Fourth Street, East) across from DCH Regional Medical Center.
Here is a complete schedule of events slated for March 17-20:
