Several NFL teams are relocating their training camps to Southern California this summer, likening the region to Arizona's spring training hub. The Las Vegas Stadium authority will discuss a nonrelocation agreement with the A's. The Raiders plan to build a temporary locker room in Costa Mesa for their camp, limited in fan attendance due to NFL rules. The move is seen as beneficial for players and fans, with the Raiders, Saints, Cowboys, Rams, and Chargers all set to camp in or near LA.
It’s out of the Raiders hands. They are holding camp within the marketing territory of two NFL teams. Same policy is in place for the Saints, who are holding their camp seven miles away in Irvine. https://t.co/eQ4dT2XvHu
By @NFL rule, the @Raiders will be limited in how many fans they can allow at their Costa Mesa training camp practices this summer. I explain the details here: https://t.co/D7NGuhwQjF
This makes sense business- AND football-wise. Getting out of the Vegas heat will be great for players. And the Raiders have a massive fan base in LA—and that facility is set up to host crowds. So now, the Raiders, Saints, Cowboys, Rams and Chargers will camp in/near LA. https://t.co/BaZZqYDh9m
Another team headed to California for training camp… https://t.co/lSPg2qk8PF
The vote of the Costa Mesa City Council was a foregone conclusion, but there were a few details we learned in the meeting. Most interesting to me was the Raiders plan to build a temporary locker room on site. Chargers typically commuted in busses to site in their pads
Bally's boss Soo Kim, who grew up a @Mets fan in Queens, talks about the @Athletics coming to Las Vegas and the design of the new stadium. Kim didn't want a domed stadium but Vegas gets hot in the summer. https://t.co/EQHjHcMtTV
With 5 NFL teams coming to Southern California this summer, SoCal is becoming what Arizona is to spring training. So, if AZ spring training is called the Cactus League, what would we call SoCal NFL summer camps? The Surf League? From our @LATimesfarmer: https://t.co/AqBQ3Gqnvv
The A’s will present a draft of the nonrelocation agreement at a May 16 Las Vegas Stadium authority meeting, according to authority chairman Steve Hill. https://t.co/11fo4RrbTY #vegas #athletics #mlb
