The Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Disney’s Wide World of Sports complex recently reached an agreement for the NFL team to return to Central Florida this July and stage a seventh consecutive training camp at the 220-acre facility. Dates for the three-week summer football camp won’t be determined until the NFL releases its 2008 schedule next month, but players likely will have to report July 24 and begin two-a-days July 25.During the course of their 21-day camp in 2007, seven of the scheduled 31 practices were canceled or moved inside because of thunderstorms or heat-index conditions that reached 110 degrees. As a result, both parties are exploring potential indoor practice options.Last year, 20,263 fans visited Disney to watch the Bucs’ free practice sessions.
