The Chicago Bulls have announced their training camp schedule as preparations get underway for the new season.

While the likes of Joakim Noah having already returned to the Berto Centre in recent weeks, September 28 has been officially confirmed as the first day of training camp.

Following on from that, the Bulls will switch from two practices per day to one, with their first pre-season game being held on October 5 against the Indiana Pacers.

There will be a great deal of attention surrounding the preseason schedule, given that Derrick Rose is set to return after missing the entire season last year with a torn ACL.
