The Los Angeles Rams have filed paperwork with Los Angeles City Councilman Bob Blumenfield to build a new training facility and team headquarters in Woodland Hills, effectively moving the team’s practices closer to its SoFi Stadium home. 

Rams owner Stan Kroenke paid $325 million last year for a 34-acre defunct outdoor shopping mall in Woodland Hills, which the Rams will build upon for its new year-round facility. Since 2017, the Rams have practiced at a temporary facility on California Lutheran University’s campus in Thousand Oaks, nearly 50 miles from SoFi Stadium. Woodland Hills is about 30 miles from SoFi Stadium in Inglewood. 

Kroenke is planning a 100-acre complex in Woodland Hills, including a commerce area with restaurants, hotels, and residences surrounding the Rams’ proposed training facility. The mega complex will be located in the Warner Center neighborhood of Woodland Hills.

“I am very excited that the process to welcome the Los Angeles Rams year-round practice facility/headquarters to the West Valley has officially begun,” Blumenfield wrote in a letter to Woodland Hills residents, according to RamsWire. “This new project will be located on the old Anthem parking lot off Canoga and Erwin. It will be very similar to the site they have been operating at Cal Lutheran for the past few years with several large football fields and a network of temporary modular structures.”

The new team headquarters will build upon Kroenke’s existing $12.8 billion sports empire that spans his ownership of the Rams, the NBA’s Denver Nuggets, NHL’s Colorado Avalanche, Colorado Rapids in MLS, and the National Lacrosse League’s Colorado Mammoth.
