Board approves 2024-25 athletic ticket prices; district keeps $1 GoFan convenience fee
Summary
The board approved ticket pricing for fall, winter and spring athletic events for the next school year; most prices rise $1'$2, with a $5 jump for basketball at some levels, and the district maintained a $1 GoFan online convenience fee.
The Tuscaloosa City Schools Board approved proposed ticket prices for the 2024-25 athletic seasons at its March 18 meeting.
Dr. Cameron presented the recommendation and noted that athletic directors, principals and the athletics staff approved the schedule. He said the district negotiated to keep the GoFan online convenience fee at $1 and that most ticket categories will increase by $1 to $2; basketball prices include a $5 increase for some tickets. The district intends to keep student ticket pricing reasonable so students can continue to attend events. The board moved and seconded the motion to approve; the item passed by voice vote.
A board member asked how district prices compare to county pricing; Dr. Cameron said the county is generally a bit higher in some categories (for example, some county football prices were noted as $15 or more while the district keeps football at $12). The board adopted the prices for the coming year.
