RICHMOND, Ky. –
Eastern Kentucky University's football team hosted patients from the Lexington Shriners Medical Center for a NoLimits Sports Camp on Saturday at Roy Kidd Stadium.
 
While on campus, the patients learned more about the game of football from the Colonels, and the importance of nutrition, and strength and conditioning from the coaching staff.
 
The NoLimits Sports Camp was free to patients, ages 5-18, regardless of physical limitations.  Participating patients learned that there is #NoLimits to their athletic ability.
 
The patients enjoyed a tour of EKU's football facilities, including the strength and conditioning center, the team room and the players' lounge.  After the tour, patients rotated throughout various stations with EKU football players and participated in some of the very same drills the Colonels have been participating in during preseason practice.
 
The 2019 season begins on August 29 at Roy Kidd Stadium.  Fans can purchase 2019 season tickets NOW by visiting EKUSports.com or calling 844-3-GoBigE.
