WACO, Texas – As part of the annual Kickoff for the Community event, Baylor Athletics has announced the inaugural Baylor Youth Football Day on Saturday, Aug. 31, prior to the Bears' season opener vs. Tarleton at 6 p.m. CT at McLane Stadium.
 
Baylor Athletics invites local community youth football teams to McLane Stadium for a pre-game Chalk Talk with a member of the Baylor Football staff, photos and more on the field just hours before the 2024 season opener. To end the event, every team will line the home sideline and welcome the Bears to the field during one of Baylor's greatest traditions, the Bear Walk.
  
Game tickets are included in the price of admission for the event and will be limited to youth football teams aged 12 & under. Admission to the event also includes game tickets.
 
Berm seating admission is $10 per ticket, and bench seating admission is $20 per ticket. The pre-game, on-field experience is limited to players and coaches; however, parents can be included in the group ticket package. Supervision of teams in attendance is required, and participating teams must wear uniform apparel or Baylor Green and Gold on gameday. 
 
To register for Baylor Youth Football Day, teams will need to provide the number of players, coaches/staff and adults that will attend using this online form. Once the team has been registered, they will receive additional information regarding ticket purchase instructions.
 
Teams are encouraged to sign up early, as registration will be available until we hit capacity. Any further questions or concerns can also be emailed to Erykah Byias, Assistant Director of Community Engagement and Group Sales, at Erykah_Byias@baylor.edu.
