SEATTLE -- In compliance with King County guidelines, spectators 12-years-of-age and older attending athletic competitions hosted by Seattle Pacific University will need to provide proof of full vaccination or present a negative COVID-19 test taken within 72 hours of the event.
 
These measures are designed to provide a safe environment for all visitors to the campus, including student-athletes, coaches, staff and spectators. The updated policy will be instituted beginning on October 25 and applies to events at SPU's Brougham Pavilion and Interbay Stadium.
 
Before purchasing or picking up tickets at venue Will Call windows, attendees will be required to show evidence of vaccination. Acceptable forms of proof include a CDC-issued Vaccination Record Card, a photo of the card, the Washington state myIRmobile.com app or a document from a health care provider.
 
Those who cannot provide proof of vaccination may instead present documentation of a negative FDA-approved COVID-19 test administered by a professional and dated within 72 hours of the event.
 
Fans under the age of 12 are exempt from SPU's fan attendance policy regarding vaccination and negative test requirements.
 
SPU athletic venues will open 90 minutes prior to the start of home events to accommodate the additional entrance requirement. To expedite the entry process, fans are encouraged to purchase tickets online in advance using this link -- SPU Sports Tickets
 
Additionally, SPU continues to follow county policies of mandatory mask-wearing for all spectators over 5 years old, regardless of vaccination status, at both indoor and outdoor competitions. Fans must wear face coverings over their nose and mouth while at the venue. Masks may be adjusted while actively eating or drinking.
 
The Seattle Pacific Athletic Department appreciates the continued consideration and adherence to these policies from our supporters to achieve the common goal of sustaining the health and well-being of our student-athletes and the greater campus community.
