Browns release training camp schedule featuring free public practices
BEREA, Ohio -- The Cleveland Browns 2016 training camp, presented by Northeast Ohio Ford Dealers, will feature 11 free public practices at the team's facility in Berea, beginning Friday, July 29, as well as free access to the team's Orange & Brown Scrimmage, presented by TourismOhio, at Ohio Stadium in Columbus on Saturday, Aug. 6.
"Last week, we concluded what I thought was a productive offseason program for our team," said Head Coach Hue Jackson. "I appreciated our players' hard work and effort as they worked tirelessly on improving in every area and at learning our process of what it will take to be successful in this league. We have more work ahead as we strive to accomplish our goals. We are excited about the opportunity to build on that foundation with our fans during training camp as we continue to prepare for the upcoming season."
After the completion of training camp and the Browns' second preseason game vs. Atlanta at FirstEnergy Stadium on Aug. 18, Cleveland will conduct joint practices in Tampa Bay prior to the Preseason Week 3 game against the Buccaneers at Raymond James Stadium.
All training camp practices at the team's Berea training facility are free to fans, who can register online or by downloading the Browns Mobile App. On the day of each session, fans may also access their tickets directly from the Browns Mobile App for entry.
Browns 2016 season ticket members will have an exclusive window to register for open practices from July 12-14 prior to public availability opening at 10 a.m. on Friday, July 14. For the third consecutive year, the Browns will implement a training camp registration process to help maximize each fan's experience at all open sessions, as well as to best accommodate guests who must make travel arrangements to attend training camp.
Browns fans are also encouraged to visit www.ClevelandBrowns.com and the Browns Mobile App as a resource for daily updates, including weather and additional information for each practice.
Free registration for the Cleveland Browns 2016 Orange & Brown Scrimmage opens to season ticket members exclusively on June 21 and to all fans on June 23. The team's on-field session will begin at 3 p.m. while the Browns once again will bring Dawg Pound Drive to St. John Arena in Columbus, where the team will feature many engaging pregame opportunities for all fans to enjoy beginning at noon.
Last year's inaugural Orange & Brown Scrimmage attracted 49,734 fans to The Horseshoe, the highest of any Browns scrimmage or Family Day since totals were first kept in 2005.
Fans will have the opportunity to register for up to three practices in Berea, along with a maximum of four guests, as space permits. Parties wishing to attend more than three practices or book for groups of six-or-more people are encouraged to contact the Browns ticket office directly (440-824-3434).
When arriving with their ticket or the Browns Mobile App to open training camp practices, fans can enter the Browns training facility through the Beech Street entrance, with gates opening one hour before each session starts. Membership-services stations will also be available to all visitors inside and outside the complex to assist fans.
Parking is available on the campus of Baldwin-Wallace University, near the intersection of Beech Street and Bagley Road.
