UIS Athletics is excited to welcome faculty and staff to Prairie Stars home events this fall!
Admission is charged for regular-season home games in women’s volleyball, men’s and women’s soccer, men’s and women’s basketball, softball, and women’s flag football. There is no admission charge for baseball, cross country, golf, or tennis events.
UIS Athletics provides complimentary admission to all regular-season home events for UIS faculty, staff, and students, including games held at Scheels Sports Park, such as flag football and softball.
Faculty and staff can receive complimentary admission by showing their UIS ID at the ticket window or gate. Students can gain admission by scanning their event pass at the gate.
Each sport also hosts a Faculty & Staff Appreciation Event during its home schedule. For sports where admission is charged, faculty and staff may request up to four complimentary tickets for these designated events—an opportunity to bring family, friends, or neighbors to experience UIS Athletics. To get four free tickets, go to the UIS Athletics website and select “Buy Tickets” under the ticket tab. After selecting one of the games below, inset the promo code “UISFS” on the payment page. If the promo box does not show up, click Release Cart and Start Over.
