To kick off the 2011 season, the Florida football and volleyball teams will come together for a unique fan day experience. On Aug. 20, from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m., both teams will take part in Fan Day in the O'Connell Center. Admission is free and gates will open at 2:30 p.m.
Gator fans will have the chance to get autographs from members of the football and volleyball teams, the football and volleyball coaching staffs, cheerleaders and Gatorettes. The University Athletic Association will supply 2011 Gator team posters for player autographs. The UAA cannot allow outside items to be brought in to the event due to NCAA compliance issues. Due to the high demand for many of the players' and coaches' autographs, the lines will be monitored and closed to ensure that fans are not waiting for autographs with no chance of reaching the signing table by the event's conclusion.
In addition to the autograph session, the volleyball team will hold their annual Orange & Blue scrimmage from 3:30 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. The volleyball team will then sign autographs for fans from 4:30 p.m. to 6 p.m.
Fans can also visit the Bryan E. Kornblau Foyer, located in the James W. "Bill" Heavener Football Complex, which will be open from 2 p.m. to 6 p.m. that afternoon. Fans can view the trophy cases and hi-definition televisions, displaying highlights from the Gators' national championships in 1996, 2006 and 2008, as well as the three crystal national championship trophies. In addition to the prominent crystal awards, also on display are all three Heisman Trophies and tributes to the eight SEC Championships that the Gators have earned since 1991.
Whenever a ball is in motion, a huge arrow will be superimposed over the surface of the court, showing you where the Volleyball awards ball will eventually land. The power, accuracy, and overall quality of your shots depend largely on two things
