Football training camps are underway as the National Football League prepares to begin the 2023-24 regular season. In Irvine, the Los Angeles Rams are continuing the annual tradition of holding the team’s training camp at Crawford Field at UC Irvine.
Coming off a dismal five win, 12 loss season in 2022-23, the Super Bowl LVI winning franchise looks to get back to championship status.
While fans will have to wait for the team’s quest for another championship to begin during its first regular season game on Sunday, Sept. 10, against the Seattle Seahawks, the LA Rams will be hosting open practices at UC Irvine through Tuesday, Aug. 8., and are inviting fans to come get a sneak peak of players in action.
