HUNTINGTON, W.Va. – Marshall Athletics is happy to announce upcoming Fans First games for men's soccer, women's soccer and volleyball.
We hope you will join us for the upcoming Fans First events, but what exactly does Fans First mean? It means free admission, promotional giveaways, student-athlete autographs and MORE.
Here are some important dates that are part of our Fans First initiative:
Aug. 5: Fans First Day, 5:30-7 p.m.
Aug. 9: Women's Soccer vs. Cincinnati, 6 p.m.
Aug. 17: Men's Soccer vs. Robert Morris, 7:15 p.m.
Aug. 18: Volleyball vs Ohio, 6 p.m.
This year we are also transforming the original Football Fan Day into a rebranded Fans First Day!
Fans can interact with the football, volleyball, men's soccer, women's soccer, men's cross country and women's cross country teams at the event. Each team will have stations where fans can get autographs and interact with the student-athletes – a key component of the Fans First experience.
Those participating in Fans First Day are also encouraged to join Marshall Athletics in a school supply drive that will be donated to local youth. Every fan that brings a school supply item will be given a ticket special that they can use for the 2023 football season.
On the day of the event, fans will enter through the Herd Zone store located at Joan C. Edwards Stadium, starting at 5:30 p.m. Once inside the concourse, fans can pick up fall posters for autographs and kids can also get a bingo card to fill out for a special prize as they make their way down to the field at Joan C. Edwards Stadium.
While in attendance, fans can also purchase tickets for all fall sports, sign up for the 2023-24 Kid's Club or stop by the Big Green table for information on ways to give to their specific programs.
We are excited about these upcoming events and can't wait to share in that excitement with our fans! See you there!
