MADISON, Wis. – The Wisconsin football team is in the midst of preparation for the 2022 season. That means Camp Randall Stadium is about to come back to life.

The day starts at 1:30 p.m. with Badgerville featuring the Kohl's Kids Combine located outside the northeast corner of Camp Randall Stadium, adjacent to Parking Lot 17. Kids of all ages and abilities can take part in a mini combine to test their football skills. In addition, Badgerville will feature terrific food and drink for purchase, tailgate games, photo opportunities, entertainment and more.
Camp Randall Stadium will open at 3:30 p.m. for fans wanting to watch practice. "The Voice of the Badgers" Matt Lepay and color commentator
Mike Lucas will be on hand to offer analysis and speak with special guests, including head coach
Paul Chryst, Director of Athletics
Chris McIntosh and members of this year's team.
Admission to both Badgerville and practice are free. Free parking is available in Lot 17. Fans who plan to be in attendance are asked to

In conjunction with the free fan events, Wisconsin Athletics is hosting a children's book drive benefiting local non-profit groups. Fans are encouraged to bring children's books to donate.
Tickets are still available for the
Badgers' season-opener against Illinois State on Sept. 3 under the lights at Camp Randall. UW will honor the back-to-back-to-back Big Ten Championship teams from 2010, 2011 and 2012 at that game.
