Preseason practices

It's getting close. My best guess is practices start around Monday, Aug 7. I would also guess most of the team is spending this week at home before returning this coming weekend to start getting after it.

I haven't heard of any changes to the NCAA rule that dictates how many practices before the first match. I believe the rule is still " 29 practice opportunities" before your first match.

Working backwards from first serve on F Aug 25 you have the following:

Th 24 - 1 practice + travel day
W 23 - first day of classes - 1 practice
T 22 - 2 practices
M 21 - 2 practices
Su 20 - off
Sa 19 - red/blue scrimmage (counts as 1 practice)
M 14 to F 19 - 2 per day = 10 practices
Su 13 - off
M 7 to Sa 12 - 2 per day = 12 practices

That would add up to 29. Coaches will be flexible and make changes if needed as they get into the preseason work, but this is a good guess and should be close.

Looks like Fordham has a countdown on their twitter.

I think they start on the 8th??? Anyway, yes. It looks like your guess is very close. Practice starts early next week.
