Shuttles, special parking set for Saturday’s Red and White practice

Cardinals

Arizona Cardinals fans will flock to Saturday’s Red and White practice at Northern Arizona University, which includes a pre-practice autograph session for children 12 and younger.

The autograph session will take place from 10:45-11:10 a.m. on the lower field across the street from the Walkup Skydome. Gates for the session will open at 9:45 a.m. The Cardinals have set a limit of one item per child and are not permitting posed photos during this session.

Fans will then have the opportunity to see the Cardinals take the field for a training camp practice from 11:35 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. on the upper fields.

Shuttle service to the practice fields will be available from the commuter parking lot adjacent to Pine Knoll Drive just south of the intersection with McConnell Drive (shown as lots P62, P62A, and P62B on this map). Shuttles will leave every 5-10 minutes from the lot. Parking for people with disabilities will be provided directly east of the Skydome lot, just north of Pine Knoll.

Meanwhile, sections of both McConnell Drive and San Francisco Street near the Skydome will be closed from 6:30 a.m. to the conclusion of practice.

Fans are encouraged to check the latest weather reports. In the event of inclement weather, the autograph session may be canceled. If the Cardinals do not practice on the grass fields at NAU, they may still hold an outdoor practice on the field turf surface at Coconino High School. If practice is moved into the Skydome, then public access will not be available because of ongoing construction at the site.
