Event Security Plans
The elevated expectations for event security plans in men’s and women’s basketball and football will require that only student-athletes, coaches, officials, and authorized personnel are allowed in the competition area before, during, and at the conclusion of any competition. Further, visiting team personnel and officials must have the opportunity to safely exit the competition area before spectators may access the competition area following a contest. These plans must be reviewed by an independent third party by the start of the 2026-27 academic year.

Breaches of the event security policy will result in a fine that increases for each occurrence over a rolling two-year period –

• 1st occurrence: $50k;
• 2nd occurrence: $100k;
• and 3rd and subsequent occurrences: $200k.

Occurrences accumulate per school rather than per sport. Any fines will be put into the Weaver-James-Corrigan-Swofford Postgraduate Scholarship account.
