Tickets go on sale today (Tuesday) for tonight’s DeKalb County High School home basketball games with Cannon County.
Beginning tonight DCHS is returning to public attendance guidelines for sporting events that were in place when the season began.
“With the Governor lifting the most recent restrictions, TSSAA is allowing sporting events to return to a 1/3 seating capacity limit that was in place during the first part of the season,” said DCHS Principal Randy Jennings.
“There will be a limited number of tickets sold to the public each game. Tickets will be sold starting at 12:30 p.m. on game day and will be sold until the seating capacity is reached. Tickets are $7.00. All season ticket holders are guaranteed admittance to the game,” said Jennings.
“All fans will have their temperature checked and they must wear a mask upon entering the gym”, added Principal Jennings.
The remaining DCHS home basketball games are on Tuesday February 2 and Tuesday, February 9.
WJLE will have LIVE coverage of tonight’s games starting with the girls contest at p.m. followed by the boys game. WJLE’s Tiger Talk Show airs at 5:45 p.m. featuring the coaches and Tiger and Lady Tiger players Luke Jenkins, Brayden Antoniak, Ella VanVranken, and Madison Martin
