June 2, 1971: State of the Art Training Complex | Redskin Historian
George Allen was a visionary. After becoming Redskins coach in 1971, he called for a state-of-the-art training complex, something bold and futuristic in nature. Groundbreaking ceremonies were held on June 2, 1971, and the complex – known as Redskin Park – stood as the most advanced practice facility in the NFL, by the time it opened in Chantilly, VA, before the `71 season. It featured grass and artificial turf practice fields, and a building with every amenity a football team would want.

Niles Paul stood out in today’s practice, catching two deep balls while being matched up against a safety and a linebacker.
