Football
The Dallas Cowboys are scheduled to report to training camp in Oxnard, California on July 20th. In about two weeks time, football things will officially be happening.
Oxnard has become synonymous with the Cowboys and summertime. The Cowboys have made their way out to the west coast for camp almost every year this century and for those who have been it is easy to see why.
Weather is obviously pristine in California and while the summer sun is a factor wherever you are, the other elements involved make training for the NFL a lot less difficult than doing so in the Lone Star State. Players have spoken many times about how much they love it, and as of Tuesday we know that this will continue to be the case. The Dallas Morning News reported that the Cowboys have struck a deal with the City of Oxnard to continue holding camp there through 2030.
A lot has changed around the Cowboys since they first began holding camp in Oxnard and one of those things is their world headquarters. The Star is almost a decade old itself and has grown substantially, so much so that it holds the second part (so to speak) of training camp for Dallas after they break in California. To this point the Cowboys will “only” host 16 practices (as far as those open to the public) in Oxnard this year.
History has seen the Cowboys train in Austin, Wichita Falls and San Antonio. Those areas and any others interested in holding training camp for the team will have to wait until 2031 for an opportunity to do so.
