Ticket information for next week's home opener vs. Northeast

The continuing coronavirus pandemic is forcing Holmes Community College to make alterations to its football game day environment.

The changes include limited seating inside Branch Stadium that conforms to the latest guidelines as established by Mississippi Gov. Tate Reeves. Tickets will be first-come, first-serve and will be available at the stadium ticket booths. Tickets will not pre-sold. It is best if you come early so you will not be without a ticket.

Only 160 tickets will be available for the visiting teams at all Mississippi Association of Community Colleges Conference (MACCC) venues this fall.

Face coverings over the nose and mouth are required when entering and exiting the facility or when moving around the sidewalks, visiting the concession stand or restrooms. Fans are encouraged to wear masks or face coverings while in their seats.

Student athletes, coaches, officials and other essential institutional personnel are the only groups that will gain access to the playing surface. Entry to the field at the conclusion of each contest is prohibited this season.

All guests and game day staff are asked to conduct self-screening of their personal health before coming to campus. This should include a temperature check and review of any potential COVID-19 symptoms.

The Bulldogs host three matchups as part of its revised schedule including: Oct. 29 vs Northeast, 6:30 p.m.; and Nov. 12 vs. Northwest, 3 p.m.; and Nov. 19 vs. Itawamba, 6:30 p.m.
