The Tampa Bay Buccaneers announced today the team's training camp schedule, which includes 11 practices open to the general public and an additional four for season pass members, the military and other select guests.

This season, most of the team's practices will take place in the late afternoon, beginning at 4:00 p.m. in order to take advantage of cooler temperatures. The majority of the practice sessions will be held outside on the two primary practice fields at AdventHealth Training Center and will feature covered bleacher seating for fans. A free digital ticket – available on the team's website at www.Buccaneers.com – will be required for entry to all practice sessions.

"Coach Arians, his staff and our players are eager to continue their preparations for the upcoming 2019 season," said Buccaneers Chief Operating Officer Brian Ford. "Our entire organization is eagerly anticipating the start of our 11th training camp at our state-of-the-art training facilities at the AdventHealth Training Center. With 15 practices open to the general public and select groups, our fans will have plenty of opportunities to come out and experience the excitement firsthand as we usher in this new era of Buccaneers football under coach Arians."

The team's first practice of training camp will be on Friday, July 26 and will be open to the public. The first time that the players will be permitted to wear pads will be on Sunday, July 28. On Tuesday, August 6, the team will host its annual Special Olympics Day at camp featuring post-practice interactions between Buccaneer players and Special Olympics athletes.
