BON SECOURS WASHINGTON REDSKINS TRAINING CENTER OPENS TO THE PUBLIC FOR TRAINING CAMP THURSDAY, JULY 25

 

Richmond training camp will feature 22 on-field open sessions to accommodate fans

 

 

RICHMOND, Va. – The Washington Redskins, in partnership with the City of Richmond, Bon Secours Virginia Health System, and the Virginia Governor’s Office, announced their 2019 training camp schedule, set to take place at the world-class Bon Secours Washington Redskins Training Center from July 25 through Aug. 11 in Richmond, Va. The schedule features a total of 22 public on-field sessions available to fans, highlighted by Fan Appreciation Day on Saturday, Aug. 3.

 

Admission is free for all fans. Online registration will be open to Redskins fans beginning June 1. Available parking lots provided by the City of Richmond will be announced closer to camp.

 

Between practice sessions, fans will have the opportunity to meet Redskins alumni, participate in various family-friendly activities and purchase Redskins merchandise at the Redskins Team Store retail tent. The team will host special themed days at the Training Center, off-site events, and other unique fan experiences throughout camp.

 

Following practice, Redskins players and coaches will be available to sign autographs and take pictures, schedules permitting. All scheduled dates and practice times are subject to change.

 

The $10 million state-of-the-art training center debuted in 2013 and features two full-size natural grass fields, a drill field, spectator areas, locker rooms and a training room. Bon Secours Virginia Health System is the main tenant of  Training Center, which serves as a valuable year-round resource for the community when camp is not in session. A full-service sports medicine rehabilitation and primary care practice are provided throughout the year.

 

The City of Richmond and Economic Development Authority, in partnership with SMG, manages year-round events at the venue. The fields are available for youth programming, tournaments, public, private and corporate events that generate revenue and build new relationships for the City of Richmond throughout the year.

 

During the team's stay in Richmond and throughout the 2018 calendar year, the Washington Redskins Charitable Foundation youth programs impacted more than 15,000 children in the Richmond community. Events and activities included the Gatorade Junior Training Camp, a $57,000 sports equipment donation to local schools and non-profits, expansion of the 2018-2019 Redskins Read and Loads of Love Programs, Coaches in the Classroom and more.

Yup. Training camp is just around the corner. Favorite time of the year :D 

 

might try to head to training camp either the 6th or the 10th, since those are the only two days of the 1:30 practices I’ll be able to make it to. Anyone know of any pubs or breweries within walking distance of the training camp facility?

The Richmond deal ends next summer, right? Do you think they’ll move back to redskins park after, or extend the deal in Richmond?

 

I guess that will partially depend on who the coach is. I hear Gruden likes getting out of town for camp, but if they lay another egg this season he'll probably be out. Also, weren't there reports that Richmond was behind in paying the team for something, and the team might want to cancel if it continues?
