VISITORS GUIDE 2019-2020 IU Northwest RedHawk Athletics
Welcome
The RedHawks of Indiana University Northwest are excited to have you visiting Gary, IN for our
competition this season. We look forward to meeting your players and staff. Within this packet,
you will find directions to our home facility and a list of information (hotels, dining,
entertainment, etc.) that will assist you in your visit to IU Northwest. Our desire for every
visiting institution is to present a first class program willing to do whatever we can to
accommodate our visitors. Please take a minute and review all the information given.

Sports Information
The Assistant Athletic Director for Athletic Communications at IU Northwest is David Bork.
Please send all updated statistical and media guide information to him at dwbork@iu.edu prior
to your visit. If we don’t receive any information we will obtain the information from your
website and assume it is correct.

Sports Medicine
IU Northwest uses Lake Shore Bone & Joint for their athletic training purposes. Lake Shore
Bone & Joint provides student athletes with the best medical care possible following an injury,
to return the athlete back to school and competition as soon as possible, and in the safest
manner.
We assume your school will not be traveling with a trainer, but if they do please have them
introduce themselves upon arriving and our trainer will show them the facilities we have for AT
purposes.
If your team will not be traveling with an athletic trainer, our trainer, Jessica Gray, will assist
your team with any AT needs. We ask that teams provide their own sports medicine materials.

Game Tickets/Passes
Ticket sales to all IU Northwest athletic events are $5 for the general admission. IU Northwest
athletic department does honor visiting team NAIA passes. Each presented pass will admit one
guest only. Additional team/player guest list will not be allowed unless approved by IU
Northwest Director of Athletics prior to your team’s visit.

Facility Information
IU Northwest Volleyball and Basketball play all of our home games on campus in the Savannah
Center building. This facility is located just off of Broadway as you enter our Gary, IN campus.
(Facility Maps/Directions are attached later).
Locker Room: Visitor Locker rooms will be located on the 2nd floor of Savannah, above the
gym. A student-staff member will direct your team to the locker rooms upon arrival.

Training Room: The training room is located downstairs. Student staff will be available to help
guide your athletes and staff.

Videotaping: Videotaping will be done from an assigned area. Teams must provide their own
