Omaha, Neb. -- Creighton University will allow a limited number of fans to attend women's basketball home games at D.J. Sokol Arena inside the Ryan Athletic Center – currently up to 10% of maximum capacity – beginning with the Marquette game to be played on Wednesday, Jan. 6, under a plan approved by the Douglas County Health Department.
Limited tickets will be offered to 2019-20 season-ticket holders only on a game-by-game basis. All tickets will be sold digitally with seat locations that allow for physical distancing. Last year's season-ticket holders will receive an email from the Creighton Athletics Ticket Office on Friday, Jan 1 with additional information regarding the ticket sales process.
"While we are excited to offer limited attendance at our women's basketball home games beginning with Marquette on Jan. 6, our top priority will remain the health and safety of our student-athletes, coaches, staff, and fans," said Creighton President the Rev. Daniel S. Hendrickson, SJ, PhD. "We have implemented a number of safety protocols on our campus, and will enforce the same rules for our fans, as we do for all our faculty, staff and students. Things will look different at D.J. Sokol Arena, and we appreciate everyone doing their part to follow these requirements."
All fans will be required to wear face coverings and maintain physical distancing in and around the arena. Signs and floor decals will be located at entrances, security check points, concession stands and other areas of the arena to promote physical distancing. Hand-sanitizer stations also will be available at all entrances and throughout the arena. Limited concessions will be open for fans.
The following protocols will be enforced:
