Question
I am about to enroll in a university this fall and i wanted to play football but do I have to contact them now or can I wait until July? And If the university is already having spring practice and I am still in high school can I practice with them or do I have to wait until September when i actually take classes?

Answer
Omar, hello!

You should contact them now and they will advise when they're able to talk with you.  You cannot practice with them unless you have approval as a walk on or a preferred walk on.  They will tell you when they have a summer camp just for possible recruits.  

Have a happy year and stay motivated to get on that team!
