Raiders camp in Costa Mesa would make them the fifth NFL team to train in SoCal
LA TimesThe Jack R. Hammett Sports Complex will be the site of the Las Vegas Raiders’ spring training activities this year. The Saints plan to hold training camp at UC Irvine this summer, and the Raiders are putting the finishing touches on a deal to move their camp to Costa Mesa. The Costa Mesa site became available because the Chargers are moving to their new practice facility in El Segundo, where they will hold training camp. The Rams used to hold training camp in Irvine, but they are moving camp to the L.A. area this summer — they haven’t announced their new site — in preparation for their eventual move into the practice complex the club is constructing in Woodland Hills. “I’m pleased to welcome the Las Vegas Raiders and their loyal fans, `Raider Nation,’ to the great city of Costa Mesa for training camp this summer,” Costa Mesa Mayor John Stephens said in a news release.
