Rider Athletics is proud to offer a number of ways for fans to engage in the atmosphere at all home events and has developed certain "experiences" to make visiting campus and our facilities even more exciting. While individuals can take part in any of these promotions, we do have many opportunities that are specifically designed for local youth groups and organizations.
The following "fan-experience" opportunities are available:
- Group tickets for men's basketball, women's basketball and wrestling are available at a discounted price of $5 per person for groups of 10 or more;
- Special ticket pricing and activities for all kids 17 & under for men's and women's basketball and wrestling during "Youth Month" in January;
- Take the field/court with our teams for the National Anthem or perform the National Anthem at a home event (review and approval of group or individual singing the anthem must take place in advance);
- Participate in a "high-five" tunnel with our student-athletes (select games only);
- Play a halftime mini-game during basketball, soccer or field hockey games (one team would be divided to play against each other unless two groups of similar age and skill level are in attendance). Available on first come, first served request basis;
- Take part in on-field/on-court promotions during contests timeouts or halftime. Interested individuals must sign up with a member of the Rider Athletics marketing staff either in advance or on the day of the contest;
- Group welcome via the videoboard in Alumni Gym (for volleyball, wrestling, men's basketball and women's basketball only) or PA announcement; and/or
