Is there a limit on how many family members can attend? It depends on the facility/location and the capacity limits at the facility. The Eagles Academies are held at a wide variety of locations. For events hosted at the Eagles Indoor Practice Facility, there is a capacity limit and thus we must limit the number of family members who attend with each registered participant. For locations that are outdoors (typically at high school or college stadiums or practice facilities) we typically do not limit the number of guests who can attend with each participant. If you are attending an event at the Eagles Indoor Practice Facility, each registered participant is able to have 2 family members attend and watch. If you would like to request an exception to this limit, please contact us at fly@eaglesacademies.com. We do try to accomomdate all of our families as best we can.
