SEATTLE – Following today’s actions by Washington Governor Jay Inslee to limit event crowd sizes to less than 250 people across King County until further notice during the evolving COVID-19 situation, the University of Washington athletic department has announced measures, including restricting spectators at home events, to adhere to this new policy. Our hearts go out to those impacted by COVID-19, and we and our student athletes understand the critical importance of protecting those most susceptible to the virus.
Effective immediately, attendance at all home athletic events will be restricted to competing student-athletes, coaches and essential working personnel only, which includes credentialed media members, until further notice. In addition, student-athletes’ families & recruits will be permitted to attend home events.
As of now, all scheduled games will proceed as planned in their previously announced location.
University of Washington athletics will continue to work with university leadership and take direction from local & state officials, including guidelines from King County, as this evolving situation progresses. Any updates moving forward will be available here. Thank you for your support and understanding.
Ticket Refund or Exchange Information
Single-game ticket purchasers for gymnastics, baseball and softball (including all tickets purchased for March 12 vs. USA Softball) will automatically receive a credit equal to their amount of purchase on their account, which could be applied toward any future UW athletics ticket purchase this year or in the 2020-’21 athletic year. Single-game purchasers preferring a refund rather than a credit, may fill out this ticket refund form. Season-ticket holders will also receive credit for the number of games restricted, and more information will be communicated as the number of games impacted becomes available.
