Tackle Football
Tackle players must attend a heat acclimation camp in their first week to adjust to high heat and humidity.
A typical schedule will look like:
Days 1-3: shorts, Tshirt, cleats, mouthpiece
Day 4: shorts, Tshirt, helmet, cleats mouthpiece
Day 5: shorts, Tshirt, helmet, cleats mouthpiece, shoulder pads

It is important that players maintain this schedule even if missing practice.
