Enclosed please find the Visiting Spirit Group Questionnaire to be completed and returned at your earliest convenience for your visit to Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium. Once your questionnaire is received, a second packet of information will be sent that includes game day credentials, bus parking passes, practice time, campus maps and any other requested information. Please return the questionnaire as soon as possible so that we can make proper arrangements to ensure that your visit to Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium is a pleasant one. Texas Athletics requires that all Spirit Group vehicles/busses arrive at the designated parking area 1 hour and 30 minutes prior to scheduled game time. Visiting Spirit Groups will be met and parked on 23 rd street (see map) by Elsa Hagemeier with Texas Athletics. From there, you will be escorted inside DKR-Memorial Stadium through the North End Zone Service Tunnel (between Gates 7 & 8). All Spirit Groups will be required to stay in the area assigned to them located in front of section 18. At no time is any member of the Spirit Group allowed onto the field pregame, during the game, or post-game (i.e. Flag running etc.). Squad Size: Due to the scarcity of field space, Texas Athletics allows a maximum of 12 total individuals present on the field. This group is typically 10 cheerleaders/dancers in uniform, a mascot, and a coach. All cheerleaders, coaches, mascots, and any other spirit or traditions groups must have a field access pass upon entering the field. Any individuals present on the field without a field access pass will be escorted out of DKR-TMS and will not be allowed entrance through the duration of the game. If the university chooses to bring more than the designated field allotment of 12 individuals to have them rotate field time, these individuals must have a game ticket. Visiting team tickets are dispensed by the visiting team ticket office and Spirit Group tickets must be taken from the allotment for all individuals in excess of the 12 total field participants allowed. If you have any questions, or need any special arrangements not addressed in this questionnaire, please feel free to contact Elsa Hagemeier elsa.hagemeier@athletics.utexas.edu (512) 232-4864 We look forward to hosting you and your team this season!
