Field Goal Club In North End Zone Now Available to All Williams Education Fund Members

LAWRENCE, Kan. — Kansas Athletics is excited to announce a new benefit for Williams Education Fund (WEF) members for the 2018 football season. Members of all ages may now access the Field Goal Club in the north end zone of David Booth Kansas Memorial Stadium with the opportunity to purchase food, Pepsi products, beer, wine and spirits. This space will operate as a first-come, first-served social area, providing a unique view to Kivisto Field.
 
“We are pleased about this added fan amenity for our Williams Education Fund members,” said Athletics Director Jeff Long. “As we work to solidify our vision for David Booth Kansas Memorial Stadium, the fan experience and the ability to provide a variety of fan amenities will be a top priority.” 
 
The Field Goal Club will open one and a half hours prior to kickoff, with food and beverage service ending at the conclusion of the third quarter. Each WEF account will receive two tickets per game for access to the club. Members may purchase up to four additional season passes at $10 each. Additional passes may only be purchased prior to each game day. The Field Goal Club ticket does not provide admission to the stadium.
 
Fans can join the Williams Education Fund for as little as $100 per year. This membership helps serve 450+ student-athletes by providing a first-class education, opportunity on and off the field and access to a network of Jayhawks across the globe.
