Although technically not an actual sport, the big Athletics news this week is Cal's football spring game. It is this Saturday, April 21, 2012. Here is some information:
BERKELEY - Fans of all ages are invited to join the Golden Bears at the Cal Spring Football Experience on Saturday, April 21 to watch practice, meet the team, take part in an autograph session, enter to win a trip to Columbus for Cal's game at Ohio State next season, and much more.
The free event is part of Cal Day festivities on campus and will take place at Edwards Stadium. Fans can enter the venue at the South Entrance located at the corner of Fulton Street and Bancroft Way in Berkeley. Gates open at 10 a.m., with the team's workout slated to begin at 11 a.m.
