IOWA VOLLEYBALL MEDIA NEED TO KNOW

Please take a few minutes to go over the information below in regard to Media Operations during the 2021 Iowa Volleyball season. We appreciate your patience and willingness to adapt this season. 

There will be no on-court or tunnel access for the media this season. Media in need of ADA assistance should contact SID Shane Sturtz.

CREDENTIAL LIMITATIONS

Credentials for Iowa’s home matches will be slightly reduced due for social distancing precautions.

If approved, credentials will be provided for the whole season or on a game-by-game basis, depending on your preference.

CREDENTIAL PICKUP

Credentials can be picked up at the MAIN ENTRANCE (North side, closest to roundabout) of Xtream Arena.

Photo identification will be required on day of game pickup.

MEDIA SEATING

Media seating is unassigned. Media should sit in section 116 beneath the media production booth at Xtream Arena.

Photo and video opportunities will be limited. There will be no floor access in 2021. Credentialed photo/video will be required to shoot game footage from the east stands only in the following sections: 111, 112, 113, 114, 115, & 116. Iowa Athletic Communications will post action photos/video highlights on the Iowa Volleyball Information Page following each home game.
