Ohio State’s first three practices of preseason camp will be open to fans once again.

Ohio State announced Tuesday that it will start preseason camp on Thursday, Aug. 6, and each of its first three practices of camp on Aug. 6, 7 and 8 will be open to fans. The practices will begin at 9 a.m. each day.

General admission tickets to each practice will cost $48, while VIP tickets – which include a shaded viewing area, snacks and drinks – will cost $143. Tickets are available on Ticketmaster, with a limit of eight tickets per order; children under two years old will be admitted for free.

It’s the fourth straight year Ohio State will allow fans into the Woody Hayes Athletic Center to watch its first few practices of the summer.

Ohio State’s practices on August 6, 7 and 8 will be the first three of 25 summer practices for the Buckeyes leading up to their Sept. 5 season opener vs. Ball State (12:30 p.m., Big Ten Network) at Ohio Stadium.
