10/11/2020 | Football
RICHMOND, Va. – The University of Richmond football team held its first full team practice of the fall season Sunday afternoon at Robins Stadium. Despite the rain, the team was excited to be out on the field as an entire unit for the first time this fall.
The Spiders have held modified practices over the last month in preparation for the full practice fall schedule while the campus was in its Red Phase. The University moved into its Orange Phase as it pertains to COVID-19 last week.
Sunday's practice begins the Spiders 15-practice fall schedule. The team will hold three practices a week – Sundays, Wednesdays and Fridays – for five weeks, culminating on November 13. The Spiders will utilize all 15 dates as practice dates, without any full scrimmages scheduled. Dates, times and practice specifications are subject to change and will follow all local, state and University of Richmond policies and regulations as it pertains to COVID-19.
The Colonial Athletic Association and a large majority of NCAA FCS conferences postponed their 2020 fall competition to the spring of 2021. The NCAA Division I Council approved moving the typical spring practice season, which includes 15 full pad practices, into a window this fall.
Due to the University of Richmond COVID-19 policies (Orange Phase), the Robins Stadium is closed to the general public. Fans can follow along for updates on the @SpiderFootball social media and online at www.richmondspiders.com while the campus is in Orange Phase.
