Philosophy

Our program is based on pride and respect for teammates, opponents, team officials, league officials as well as for our parents and volunteers.

The Seahawks' philosophy is built on the following principles:

• Sportsmanship is paramount - Winning at all cost is a philosophy that may defeat the purpose of playing the game. While no one is practicing to lose, success does not depend on the score.
• Participation - Starting positions and playing time are determined on the practice field. Therefore, it is important that all players attend practices.
• Safety comes first - If a player is thought not to be ready to play by the training staff or coach, that player will not play. It is not our desire to cut or release any such player; rather, we will continue to work with the player on the practice field, with the intention of putting that player on the playing field. Playing time however is not guaranteed.
• Family atmosphere - We pride ourselves on our motto "Once a Seahawk, always a Seahawks." Our organization is very welcoming to new players, their parents and volunteers. We welcome and are proud that many of our alumni players have returned to coach with us or help out on game day.
• Fitness - Conditioning and training is important in our program. Our coaches ensure that our players take part in regular conditioning and that each player stretches properly before practice to reduce occurrences of injuries and that they are prepared for game time.
• Fun - Football is meant to be fun! We try to ensure our players have fun playing football and encourage them to continue playing the sport after their years with the Seahawks.
