<p>Once the Academic Year begins, there is a required sports period every day. Is this sports period found during Plebe Summer as well? And if so, is this every day or only a couple times per week? The reason I ask is that Drum and Bugle Corps practices while the sports period is going on, so if there are no sports periods during Plebe Summer, when does D&B practice?</p>
<p>there is no "required sports period" during the academic year. there is a sports period after the ac day ends, which is when varsity sports practice is and yes, d&b does as well, but intramural sports don't practice or compete everyday , so if you're not a varsity athlete you don't HAVE to work out during that time. there are sports periods during plebe summer, monday wednesday friday (these only start after a couple weeks of plebe summer) so don't worry, you'll get in a good time with d&b.</p>
<p>Thanks, that clears things up.</p>
<p>So, if you just wanted to lift weights in the afternoons, there is time for this?</p>
<p>There can be time but it depends on what you are doing. Obviously, varsity athletes have training. Many club sports have training and practice, some before class in the morning and afternoon as well. My Mid usually finds times for weights but it was tougher during plebe year. Now he lifts in the evening after rugby before he settles down for studying. If you want to do it, you can manage your time and find a way.</p>
