How to Plan a Trip to Cleveland Browns Training Camp

Last season did not quite go as planned — but Cleveland Browns fans never stay down for long. Win or lose, through every heart-pounding victory and gut-wrenching defeat, we bleed orange and brown. Now, with a new season nearly upon us, a reloaded squad hopes to chart a course back to the playoffs.

So, as the Browns get ready to kick off another training camp, it’s safe to say that we’re feeling pretty optimistic about the season ahead. Dust off that jersey, throw on a dog mask (we’re not judging), and check out these tips on how to make a day at Browns training camp one to remember.

App Admittance

Practices open to the public starting on July 31, so download the Cleveland Browns mobile app now to make the training camp entry process a breeze. Then, on the big day, just bring along your smartphone and flash your digital tickets at CrossCountry Mortgage Campus’s entrance off Beech Street for speedy admission.

Keep an eye on the Browns mobile app for the most up-to-date information on training camp — and don’t forget that the NFL Clear Bag policy applies to all nine open practices this summer. General admission parking will be available at the Berea Recreation Center on Front Street and at Baldwin Wallace University.

Gridiron Action

Good news: There’s not a bad seat in the house. But snag your spot in the bleachers early because it’s all available on a first-come, first-serve basis — and you won’t want to miss a second of Coach Monken putting our guys through their paces.

Whether it’s Jared Verse and Mason Graham blowing up blockers or Quinshon Judkins busting a long run up the middle, there’s no shortage of promising talent on this roster. And every drop of sweat shed this summer moves the Brownies one step closer to the Super Bowl.

Camp Activities

Not all the action takes place on the practice field, as the Browns offer a wide variety of activities to keep fans — young and old — entertained:

• Live out your NFL dreams by participating in football challenges like the quarterback toss, field goal kicks, and the 40-yard dash. Better start stretching now.
• Adopt a dog (and new best friend) at the Puppy Pound. In partnership with Geauga Mama Dogs and Pups, the Browns hope to find plenty of deserving pooches new forever homes.
• Check out the new CrossCountry Mortgage "Open the Door" experience, where fans can win prizes each day, including tickets to see the team in action and autographed Browns swag.

What a Difference a Day Makes

Training camp is more than just a chance to see your favorite players up close. It’s a celebration of everything that makes Browns football so special — the tailgates, the traditions, and that unshakable belief that this could be our year.

Each and every practice open to the public features special themes, food trucks, and gate giveaways (ranging from rally towels to schedule magnets). Check out the full schedule below:

• July 31 — Summer Kickoff
• August 1 — Back Together Weekend
• August 4 — Superhero Day
• August 5 — Military Appreciation
• August 6 — Stay in the Game!
• August 7 — Youth Football
• August 8 — Jr. Browns Backers
• August 11 — Brown & Orange

From honoring heroes in the local community to growing the game for the next generation, these theme days ensure that no two days at Browns training camp are ever quite the same.

Dawgs Gotta Eat

The end of practice doesn’t mean your day in Berea has to be over, too. Hit up either Boss ChickNBeer (wings FTW) or Gar & Mar Jamaican American Cuisine for some post-camp fuel, before washing it all down with a Grindstone Gold Lager over at Cornerstone Brewing Co.

Before heading home, swing by Igloo Frozen Yogurt for a tray of Froyo Nachos. Yes, you heard that right. Dig into this sweet treat with dreams of Victory Mondays dancing in your head.
