Thank You!!!

Hi All,

First off – a very good season. A very fun season. I wanted to tell you all how much fun I had this year and how much I enjoyed getting to know your boys. You should be very proud of them – and they should be proud of themselves! I cannot say enough good things about how they responded after a slow start (0-3) to come-on and go 4-1 in their last 5 games. They grew immensely as football players – and I sincerely hope - as young men!

Thank you for all you did throughout the season to support the boys. If your son had not played before, you and the boys found out that it is a huge commitment. We couldn’t have done as well as we did if it wasn’t for your support.

A BIG THANK YOU to all the parents that made this miserable weather bearable today for the boys. Canopies, heaters, hot cider, hot chocolate, etc. etc. A special thank you to Tess & Anna for their efforts today and throughout the season. If I’m leaving anyone out (and I’m sure that I am) – thank you..

Anna, I have no idea what is going on around the banquet – or even how we are doing with fundraising. My concentration has been elsewhere. Please tell us what you need and how we can help.

I’m in mourning over the loss and the end of the season… But already looking forward to building upon our success for next year.

Head up, ALL OUT! Go Seahawks!

Clinton 0 VS Layton White 6 (Playoff)

A great battle to the end! Even though the Seahawks loss by a touchdown, they played real hard through out the game! The weather was RAINY and terrible but it did not stop the Seahawks from playing their hearts out. A tough loss! It went scoreless all the way to the 4th quarter...what a game! Keep your heads up high boys, as you played an incredible season!

Thanks to all that have supported the Seahawks this season! We hope everyone had a great time! Stay posted on this blog for more pictures, videos and such. It's been a blast!

We look forward to next year!!!

GO SEAHAWKS!!!

It was a windy/rainy/sunny day during the whole game! At the start we seemed kind of slow but as the second quarter came along, we picked up the tempo and start to play hard!!! We did real good at our extra point plays and our defense played real good once again giving the Terrace no points!. Great job D!!! Now that is 3 wins straight fro the Seahawks.

Congrats Seahawks!! We got another WIN!!! That's 2 straight wins for us. Our offense came right out the gate and score 3 TDs in the first half. The Seahawk DEFENSE did great again and allowed Roy B to zero points! Great work! We did have some injuries that day but our players stepped up and made great plays. Great catches and great runs all around!

Clinton 19 VS Sky View 0 (GAME 4) WIN!!!!

Congratulations!! The Seahawks got a WIN!! The game was in Smithfield and was a very scenic drive to the city!! We actually played on a AstroTurf field that day at Sky View High School. Looks gorgeous!!! Anyways...the kids looked very sharp that day!! Our Defense did a great job! One of corner backs got an interception and ran the ball back for about a 90 yard TD!!! Sweet!!! Our offense did a great job, too!! Great blocks guys. Especially in the open field! Special teams did good as they recovered a fumble after the kick off. Now all we need to do is win every game and playoffs here we come. Keep your head up guys and remember to go ALL OUT!!!! Go Seahawks!!!

I'll try to post some pics of the game but I did get some great video footage!

Clinton 26 VS Layton Silver 30 (GAME 3)

Another close game!! Way to keep your head up guys!! The elusive "W" still evades us though!! So close!! Everyone did a great job but we had a lot of miss tackles that game.

Scrimmage Game

The Seahawks had a scrimmage game against Syracuse yesterday. It was a pretty good one. The Defense did well. The Offense needs a little more tightening up but all is good. The squad seemed a little nervous but its good to get those nerves out early. We now see what we need to work on before Game 1 this Saturday. Great job guys!!! Here are some pics from the game:

Parent Update

Hi All,

We were REALLY pleased with how the boys performed in their first day of hitting yesterday. I’m sure there are a few with bumps and bruises. They hit hard! If they could take a hit and get up, they did well yesterday. There are a few really big hitters on this team. And no one stayed on the ground – that’s some tough kids!

Four tackling keys (for you to work on form-tackling with your boys at home):

1- Head-up (you can’t hit what you can’t see. And just slightly less important ;) – they can break their necks if they put their heads down)

2- Butt-down (low enough that the head is “numbers” high on the person they are tackling)

3- Stay on your feet (if you run into someone and drive through them, they will naturally fall. ~70% of the time, leaving your feet means that you will not make the tackle)

4- It hurts less when you hit hard (if you shy-away from the hit, it will hurt more)

Homework assignments:

  • The backs & receivers need to memorize the holes & the passing tree. It is hard to have them run patterns or run the ball if they don’t know where to go!
  • The Lineman need to memorize the holes. I will be sending home some simplified blocking rules for them. They should go over this and memorize their assignments.

Day 6 Practice





















We now begin practicing with PADS! The hits are now going to be coming!! We also started to do Tackling Stations!! Great job guys and make sure you make your tackles!! We should be getting into the DEFENSE part of things this week as well. Also Coach Eric has returned to the field after spending some time in the desert!! Another hot day but another great practice!! Go Seahawks!! ALL OUT!!!!!!

8/01/2008

Day 5 Practice

Well it was a really hot day today!!! We introduced a new play today. The players got it down to an art! Next week we will be in full PADS!! So get ready for the HITS to come!! Now we can really get a feel of the offense!! So be ready for next week guys.....also the DEFENSE will begin!!! Go Seahawks!!!


We also had a contest on who can keep there legs in the air while laying down.....It came down to Nick and Kam!! Kam was victorious!! Great Job to Everybody!!!!! Check out the video below...




Also here is Kam leading off with the cheer!!!
