BISMARCK, ND – Marauders fans now have several new options for how they can cheer on their favorite team in person. Newly launched by the University of Mary Athletic Department, UMaryTickets.com is an online ticket purchasing website that allows fans to conveniently purchase tickets to Marauders home games in ways not previously offered.
 
In addition to single game tickets, fans now can also purchase single-sport season tickets, multi-game bundle packages to certain sports and All-Sport Season Passes.
 
"Marauders games are one of the best values in our community in terms of excitement and cost and we are proud to offer our fans more options for how they can attend our games and cheer on our teams," said University of Mary Athletic Director Dale Lennon. "Sports fans have a lot of teams they can follow in our community and we are working to put the Marauders at the top of everyone's list. By making it simpler for fans to purchase Marauders tickets through UMaryTickets.com, attending a Marauders game has never been easier."
 
Single game ticket prices for all Marauders home games are $10 for adults and $5 for children ages 13-18. Fans 12 years and younger are admitted free.
 
Season tickets for Marauders sports offer substantial savings over the single game ticket price, in some cases by as much as 40 percent. For example, basketball fans can buy a season pass for all men's and women's games for $80, encompassing 16 dates. Fans can also purchase a basketball 7-game bundle for $45 (an average of $6.42/ticket) and a 5-game bundle for $35 (an average of $7/ticket).
 
For fans who enjoy cheering on the Marauders no matter the type of competition, there are a variety of All-Sports Season Passes available. An All-Sports Season Pass for one person provides admittance to all Marauders NCAA-sponsored regular season contests for $150. The All-Sports Season Pass 1 provides entry for two family members for all NCAA-sponsored events for $225. Additionally, an All-Sports Family Season Pass is available for $250 and provides access to UMary regular season NCAA-sponsored home games.
 
Marauders hockey, which debuts this fall as part of the American Collegiate Hockey Association (ACHA), features a separate season ticket for $150 that encompasses all 23 home games with 9-game bundles for $72 and a 4-game package for $36. Admission to Marauders hockey games is not included in any of the All-Sports Season Passes.
 
Fans ordering online at UMaryTickets.com have a pair of options for how they will receive their tickets: an electronic e-ticket or ticket pick-up at will call on game day.
 
E-tickets will be sent to the customer's designated email account. They can choose to either print out the appropriate ticket or use a mobile ticket displayed on their smart phone and scanned at the gate for admittance.
 
Customers who choose the will call option can pick up their tickets on game day at the ticket booth.
 
Fans who purchase sport-specific season tickets and All-Sports Season Tickets will receive a credential that can be scanned at the entrance gate to gain admittance in addition to e-tickets for each contest. 
 
Additionally, fans that prefer the printed ticket method can purchase individual game tickets, bundles and season tickets through the Marauders Athletic Department by calling 701-355-8354 or email athletics@umary.edu for more information.
 
The Marauders partnership with UniversityTickets to create UMaryTickets.com allows the athletic department to better serve their customers, provide additional ticketing options and provide incentives for students attending games. All revenue from ticket purchases goes to athletic scholarships.
 
UMaryTickets.com is one of several new initiatives introduced by the Marauders Athletic Department this spring. The Marauders Armada is the new primary fundraising arm for its athletic scholarships. Part of the university's ongoing successful and record-breaking Vision 2030 Capital Campaign, fans and supporters of Marauders athletics, its mission, and its 17 NCAA (National Collegiate Athletic Association) Division II sports teams, can be members of the Marauders Armada at various financial levels with all gifts going directly to athletic scholarships. Visit MaraudersArmada.com to learn how to become a member of the Armada.
 
Marauders Fest, a major fundraising event for athletic scholarships under the new Marauders Armada at the University of Mary, includes events for alumni, fans and community members of all ages on June 21-23 throughout the Bismarck-Mandan community. Festivities begin June 21 with an evening banquet and auction featuring Gus Bradley, Defensive Coordinator for the Los Angeles Chargers of the NFL.
