Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 04/05/2016 (3598 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
The countdown to football season has officially begun, with the Winnipeg Blue Bombers announcing Tuesday their opening day of the 2016 training camp.
Main camp is set to open May 29 at Investors Group Field, with quarterbacks and newcomers arriving early for the rookie portion of camp, which begins on May 25. Veterans are expected to report to the team two days prior to the start of the main camp.
For spectators looking to attend, details outlining specific times of practice won’t be available until May 23.
The Bombers have scheduled two exhibition games, beginning with a home game against the Montreal Alouettes on June 8, followed by a road tilt in Ottawa against the Redblacks June 13.
In other league news, the CFL has announced they are expanding the CFL draft by one round, bringing the total to eight rounds beginning with this year’s draft on May 10.
The additional round will give each of the nine teams an additional body for training camp who won’t count against the overall maximum roster limit.
