Seahawks to report for training camp July 29, begin preseason practices July 30 open to registered public

They are almost back.

The Seahawks will report to their Virginia Mason Athletic Center for training camp for the 2016 season on July 29. That’s 15 days before their first preseason game (at Kansas City on Aug. 13). They begin training camp on the field July 30 at team headquarters in Renton.

Fans will begin getting their chance to watch that Saturday workout plus a dozen other practices through August 16 when public registration begins through the team this Thursday.

The team announced fans must register on seahawks.com beginning on Thursday, June 30, at 10 a.m. The Seahawks said Monday: “Registration will be available on a first-come, first-served basis and fans 15 years or younger must be accompanied by an adult. Only fans that register through trainingcamp.seahawks.com will be allowed to attend practice.”

The team said last year all practices sold out, and more than 34,000 fans registered for training camp.

Season-ticket holders and “Blue Pride” wait-list members can pre-register for a limited number of training-camp view spots. The team will email those invites to those appropriate recipients on Tuesday and Wednesday.

Again this year, fans will be required to park off site and then take a shuttle to the training-camp practices for a transportation fee of $8 per person.
