Some pads, at least. Got new rules from the powers that be that say all players must spend their first three days in shoulder pads and helmets before putting on full pads as a heat acclimation measure. First day we can go in full pads is still the 29th (2 weeks away) but they backed up the dates we can go out in shells to next Monday, but regardless of when a player starts he has to go the first 3 days in shells. We've been having great turnout for summer workouts and most of my guys should get it out of the way next week. Gonna switch the routine up a little bit and hit the workout first, then put gear on and do our form/speed/agility stuff, then finish up with real football things in real football gear.
Here we go.

Here we go. thats a pretty good rule! we go 1 week no pads, 1 week just helmets, and then 2 weeks full gear till first game

We go helmets first week, then add shoulder pads and the all-in-one girdles under shorts. We haven't worn practice pants in 2 years...

It really cuts down on the heat. We are facing 90-100 degree days everyday for the first 6 weeks...

Do you provide them or do the players buy them?

We have always done something similar.....the first week we go helmets the first two days, then helmets and shoulder pads the next two days, then full gear on Friday. We start our practice on Aug. 5th. Sometime it is determined by the heat as well.
