The University of Wisconsin Oshkosh will host its annual Take A Kid to the Game Day when the Titans take on the UW Stout Blue Devils in a basketball doubleheader Jan. 15 at Kolf Sports Center.
Area youths in attendance will receive a FREE ticket with the purchase of a full-priced adult ticket. They will have the opportunity to experience the college game-day atmosphere and some exciting action as they watch the Titans compete for a win over the Blue Devils. The UW Oshkosh men will tip off at 4 p.m., with the women following at 6 p.m. at Kolf.
UW Oshkosh is hosting one of more than 700 games that will be played across the nation as part of the Take A Kid to the Game (TAKG) program; in its 13th season. The project is a grass roots initiative that attracts the nation’s youth and encourages adults to take kids to area college basketball games.
“We are thrilled to invite area youth to our campus and have them help as we cheer on the Titans to victory. It is our hope that adults in the community will bring their children out to experience a collegiate athletic event at UW Oshkosh,” said Darryl Sims, director of athletics at UW Oshkosh. “We’re expecting a crowd to take part in the intense basketball action at our men’s and women’s games.”
Tickets can be purchased at the UW Oshkosh ticket office. For more information, contact UW Oshkosh Athletics at (920) 424-1034 or by visiting http://www.titans.uwosh.edu/.
