In-Person Tickets
- COVID Protocols: Facemasks are required. Social distancing guidelines should be followed and you should spread yourselves out in the gym. We will have an entire half of the gym (top and bottom) so there should be plenty of room to spread out. Please help us out by sitting in family pods and keeping distance between pods.
- Admission: Culver will be allowing 25% capacity (825 fans) for each game. No full tournament tickets will be sold, so you will have to purchase a new ticket for each game. Tickets will be $6 each and will ONLY be sold at the door. They will not be selling any pre-sale so it will be first come first served.
- Important Information: The IHSAA is requiring that all fans depart immediately following each game and new tickets be sold for each game. Let me do my best to explain how this will impact Triton fans each night.
- Tuesday: Triton plays West Central in the second game. Immediately following game 1, all fans will be asked to depart the gym. Because we play the second game, our fans will not be admitted into the gym until about 7:45. You will have to be there to purchase your ticket at Culver prior to the game. It seems to me like this could be a mad rush to get people's tickets sold and get them into the gym prior to the start of the game, but that's how they have chosen to do it. You'll need to line up and be prepared to purchase your ticket once they start allowing it. If you can have exact change that will certainly help their ticket takers and will keep things moving as quickly as possible.
- Friday: A Triton win on Tuesday will put Triton in the second game at 8:00 on Friday. Follow the same procedures as Tuesday.
- Saturday: Doors will open at 6:30 for the championship game at 7:30. Tickets will be sold at the door and the first 825 people will be admitted.
