MEDIA INFORMATION

Team Radio Policies

Each participating team radio will have 2-3 seats on press row during the session in which their team is playing. The entity that originates the broadcast will be charged a line usage fee that will cover all costs related to phone, ISDN and internet lines. This is a flat fee of $250 regardless of the type of transmission (analog, ISDN, internet). Student radios will not be charged this fee unless they serve as the official team radio, and cannot sit courtside unless they serve as the official team radio.

BLOGGING/TWEETING POLICY

Each credential holder (including television, Internet, new media, and print publications) has the privilege to blog and/or tweet during competition through the credentialed entity. However, the blog may not produce in any form a “real-time” description of the event. Real-time is defined by the A-10 as a continuous play-by-play account or live, extended live/real-time statistics, or detailed description of an event.

Credential Policy

All media credentials must be secured through Jay Sullivan, Media Coordinator. No exceptions will be permitted. Credentials are non-transferable. Credential requests must be completed online on the official request site provided by the Atlantic 10 and received by Monday, February 20, 2023 at 5:00 pm ET.

ON-COURT CAMERA POLICY

During timeouts, handheld television cameras must remain in the lane unless prior approval from the conference office is obtained. Conference policy prohibits cameras from shooting the interior of a team huddle during a timeout.

At the conclusion of the championship final, still photographers and videographers will be allowed on court to shoot the celebrations. Conference personnel will then establish a rope line, which photographers and videographers must remain behind for the awards ceremony. The official A-10 Championship photographer, A-10 Network videographer and a camera person from the television partner will have front-row priority spots to shoot the awards ceremony.

Media Locker Room Access

Access to team locker rooms will not be permitted throughout the entirety of the championship. The head coach and select players will be available for interview following games. One-on-one interviews outside of the allotted post-game press conferences will be granted on a case-by-base basis; however, those circumstances must be approved by both the conference communications office and appropriate team personnel (SID).

No media credentials will be mailed. Credentials will be distributed according to the following schedule:

Media Entrance

Media must enter CHASE Fieldhouse via the Media Entrance located directly to the right of the primary fan portal. Credential pick-up and a security check are located at this entrance.
