With much anticipation of a revived Jacksonville Jaguars under new head coach Jack Del Rio, the team begins its build up to the 2003 season as training camp begins this week.

All 86 players on the roster are expected to report Friday, with the first practice session scheduled for Saturday at 8:45 a.m. on brand new practice fields northwest of Alltel Stadium -- where Wolfson Park once stood.

Training camp will be open to the public for viewing practice sessions from July 26 through August 20, with bleacher sitting for about 2,250 people. There is no admission charge for training camp, and parking will be available in the parking lots surrounding the stadium.

Following is more specific information regarding the 2003 training camp:

PRACTICE SCHEDULE: The schedule throughout training camp is subject to change, but currently is as follows:

DAILY SCHEDULE: The normal daily schedule, which includes two practice sessions, is as follows:

ROSTER CUTDOWN DATES: The first mandatory roster reduction will be on Tuesday, Aug. 26, when all NFL teams must reduce their roster to 65 players. The final roster cuts will be on Sunday, Aug. 31, when each team must reduce to 53 active players. Until the mandatory roster cuts, the NFL roster limit for each team is 80 players under contract. Roster exemptions are granted for players who participated in the 2003 NFL Europe League season. The NFL Europe roster exemptions expire on the Aug. 26 cut to 65.

FANS TRAINING CAMP HOTLINE: Beginning Monday, July 22, fans may call the Jaguars Fans Training Camp Hotline for a recorded message which gives the daily practice schedule. The phone number is 904-633-6525. The message will be updated daily -- and as any changes are made to the practice schedule -- beginning July 25 through the end of training camp on Aug. 20.

FAN GUIDELINES: As stated earlier, training camp practice sessions will be open for viewing by the public from Saturday, July 26 through the morning practice on Aug. 20. Bleacher seating, which will accommodate approximately 2,250 people, will be provided inside the fence at the new practice fields. Restroom facilities and concession stands will also be provided. Concession stands will include food and beverages as well as Jaguars merchandise, including training-camp-specific T-shirts and caps. The Jaguars' 2003 Media Guide will also be available for $10.

Fans should park in the Lots M and N on the west side of the stadium. For fans attending practice sessions, video cameras are prohibited, as well as horns, whistles and other noisemakers. Still cameras are allowed.

Fans wishing to get autographs are asked to do so after each practice session, outside the practice field fence as the players return to the locker room. Because of the full schedule during training camp, it is not possible to schedule autograph or photo sessions other than those scheduled for Aug. 1 and 2 following the scrimmage and mock game.

Groups wishing to visit training camp do not need to make special arrangements; they may watch practice from the bleachers.
