20 Questions in 20 Days: Why West Virginia?

20-QUESTIONS-JULY-19

Giants.com is counting down the start of training camp with 20 questions in 20 days.

9) Why West Virginia?

Dan Salomone: Why not West Virginia?

For the first time since 2012, the Giants will take training camp on the road and head to The Greenbrier Resort in White Sulphur Springs, West Virginia.

The switch is due to facility upgrades in East Rutherford, something that was in motion before John Harbaugh took over but has been embraced by the head coach as a bonding experience heading into his first season with the team.

"I look at it like a real opportunity," Harbaugh said last month at minicamp when the Giants broke for the summer. "It's going to be a chance to get locked in. It's a simple place to be, you know. You don't have to deal with coming back and forth from a hotel. Obviously we'll get away from the World Cup stuff and the construction here, which is a plus too for us. But that bonding opportunity: Guys aren't going home. They're going to be with each other into the evening, stuff like that, go to dinner together. I think it's a real plus for us. I'm excited about it."

In other words, it will be all football – all the time.

"If you love football, you love training camp," Harbaugh said. "I love every day waking up and starting football and doing football all day and going to sleep and waking up and doing football again. For a coach, it's the funnest thing ever. Players might not agree, but coaches do."

The Giants won't be the first or last NFL team to practice at The Greenbrier, which includes a full sports performance center. It has previously hosted training camps for the Saints, Texans, and Browns. Additionally, the 49ers and Cardinals have used the location during the regular season to break up back-to-back games on the other side of the country.

The Giants' 2026 edition will feature six practices free and open to the public:

(Gates will open at 12:30 p.m. ET; all practices will begin at approx. 1:30 p.m.)

  • Thursday, July 30
