The Spring Showcase Presented by OrthoPros allows fans to take in an Arizona football practice in its entirety. Individual, group and team scrimmage sessions will be conducted during the two-hour practice, which will also be televised live on the Pac-12 Network.
Lucky fans attending the event will have the opportunity to participate in the practice with the Wildcats. There will be three on-field fan challenges in addition to the Kid Coach of the Game, who will have the opportunity to call a play(s) with head coach
