The UT-Permian Basin football team will hold its first ever spring football game at 6 p.m. Friday, April 8 at Odessa’s Ratliff Stadium.

The Falcons will take to the turf at Ratliff Stadium for the first time in a four- quarter game between two teams with 15-minute running clock quarters.

Only the west side of the stadium will be used for seating. Seating is first come, first served.

Tailgating will be allowed beginning at noon in the west parking lot. Entrance may be made through Ratliff’s north gate. Alcohol will not be allowed as Ratliff is an Ector County facility.

Jumpers will be available for kids from 4-6 p.m. near the west entrance to the stadium.

The game will conclude the team's first month-long spring practice session. All the action is free and open to the public.
