RENTON, Wash. (AP) — The Seattle Seahawks are opening 14 training camp practices to the public next month.
The team announced Tuesday that fans can attend practices at the Seahawks’ waterfront headquarters on Lake Washington beginning on Aug. 3 and ending Aug. 20. They must first register through the team’s Web site,
seahawks.com, on a first-come, first-served basis beginning July 16 at 10 a.m.
This will be the first time since the team returned camp to the Seattle suburbs from Cheney, Wash., in 2007 that fans can watch the Seahawks practice.
Fans will be bused to and from the facility for a $5 fee from an offsite location at a nearby shopping center.
Practice times and bus schedules will be available at the time of online registration.
The team will also host open practices at the University of Washington on Aug. 7 and Aug. 18.
