Portland Fire News Release


Portland, OR - The Portland Fire today announced its 2026 debut season training camp dates and locations. The Fire will open training camp on Sunday, April 19, at Portland State University as part of its official partnership with the university.

As the Official Higher Education Partner of the Fire, Portland State will also serve as the Fire's primary practice facility until the completion of the Kaiser Permanente Performance Center this year. The Kaiser Permanente Performance Center will be home for both the Fire and the Portland Thorns and is a 100,000 square-foot, first-of-its-kind, dual-purpose professional soccer and basketball complex intentionally designed around the needs of women athletes.

The Fire will hold its first four days of training camp at Viking Pavilion at the Peter W. Stott Center, PSU's basketball arena and regional event venue, before hosting a four-day mini-camp at the University of Oregon, slated from April 25-28.

While in Eugene, the Fire will host a series of community-focused youth basketball camps and engagement events designed to inspire the next generation of athletes across Oregon. On April 25, the Fire will host two community events: a girls basketball skills camp at KidSports in partnership with Special Olympics Oregon, and a community panel and autograph session with the Black Cultural Initiative at the People's Collective. The series continues April 27 at North Eugene High School, where a select group of local middle- and high-school girls will participate in a camp focusing on skill development, confidence building, and leadership through sport.

The current training camp schedule is below. Media availability information and additional training camp logistics will be shared separately.
