Michigan Men's Basketball - NBA Scouts
Thank you for your interest in covering University of Michigan men's basketball. Please read below as our policies have changed for scouts attending Michigan basketball games:
1. Purchase a Mobile Ticket
• A valid ticket is required for entry into Crisler Center.
• All tickets must be mobile and downloaded in advance.
• Scouts are encouraged to purchase tickets through secondary markets.
• The U-M Ticket Office reserves a limited allotment of scouting tickets (while supplies last).
• When purchasing, please indicate that you are requesting a scouting ticket so proper seating can be assigned.
• Questions? Contact Kurt Fairchild at kurtfair@umich.edu
• Ticket Office Hours: Monday-Friday, 9 a.m.–5 p.m. | Call: (734) 764-0247
TICKETING NOTE: Scouts are more than welcome to purchase tickets via secondary markets (i.e. SeatGeek), however we request a Scout to obtain a game credential (below) to give proper access and service from our arena staff.
2. Secure a Credential | Application
• A credential is required for arena and team access.
• Scouts must apply for scouting credentials by selecting the appropriate option in the credentialing system.
• Credentials provide access to designated media areas and allow entry/exit through the Weiser Tunnel (North).
• Credentials may be picked up at the media/security table inside the Weiser Tunnel (North) entrance.
3. Secure Parking
• Once credentials are approved, a parking pass may be purchased for the Blue Lot ($20 per game).
• All parking is mobile/digital.
• Passes must be purchased in advance and added to your phone wallet prior to arrival.
