TICKETS

Tickets are available online at www.uuathletics.com/tickets. Fans can also purchase tickets at the Fred DeLay Gymnasium ticket office at the front (south) entrance one hour prior to the first game of each day. The prices for tickets are $10 for reserve (chair back), $7 for general admission (bleacher), $5 for students (college or younger). Once tickets are purchased by the fans, Non-Union teams will be provided cards to pass out to up to 100 fans to be able to sit behind their team's bench for that game only. During games that do not involve your team, fans will need to move to the location of their purchased ticket to make room for other fan bases to sit behind the bench.

PARKING

Fred DeLay Gymnasium is located in the center of campus facing south. It is directly off the south entrance facing the soccer and baseball fields. Basketball parking is available in two lots, both on the south side of the gym. These lots are located between the gym and the soccer/baseball fields. Fans must enter the gym through the lobby at the front entrance below the red awning (ticket booth). The address to the campus is 1050 Union University Drive; Jackson, TN 38305. There are entrances to the campus from Country Club Lane (south), Union University Drive (north) and Pleasant Plains Extended (west).
