Bethany College understands that immediate family members, or "pods," represent a significant portion of the spectators attending athletic events. As there is typically no social distancing among members of a pod, all spectators are asked to be vigilant of social distancing and maintain at least six feet between themselves and other individuals or those outside of their pod. The College would also like to remind those sitting together in a pod to limit close interactions with individuals outside of their immediate family members.   

 

Tickets for all home events are available at bethanyswedes.com. No tickets will be available at the gate, tickets must be pre-reserved

Home athletic events are available to watch online at no cost. Most visiting athletic events also have live video available. Links for those events will be posted on bethanyswedes.com.
