Final Boys Tournament Worker Information

March 5, 2019 Basketball Blog Updates

Good morning! Thanks so much for agreeing to work at the 2019 Whitaker Bank/KHSAA Boys Sweet Sixteen®. We look forward to a great week. Here are some final details!

MATERIAL PICKUP

If you are on this list to pick up either credentials or parking, that is available at the Hyatt Regency (Thorobred 1) from 2 to 7 p.m. Tuesday, or at the Pass Gate in the arena lobby beginning at 9 a.m. on Wednesday at the location detailed below.

ARENA ACCESS

Due to ongoing renovation at the Lexington Center, the check-in/passgate will be at a different location in 2019. Media/workers will no longer be able to check-in and enter at the back dock. For 2019, the media check-in/passgate will be located on the main concourse area of Rupp Arena and the Lexington Center, under the wall of televisions located near the section of the old Rupp Arena playing floor. Media members and workers will enter via the main High Street entrance and check-in inside the lobby.

HOUSING 

The following have housing at the Hyatt Regency with a scheduled Tuesday check-in. If for any reason you cannot check-in on Tuesday, it is critical that you let us know so we can change your arrival date. The hotel is a complete sellout and a no-show will likely be problematic to getting you back into housing. The assignments are:
