Clear Bag Policy
The host school district has instituted a clear bag policy for events being held in the stadium and SCBDA will be enforcing this policy at our event.
Handicapped & Spectator Parking
Handicapped parking will be available directly in front of Irmo High School. All parking lots are free and are marked on the campus map. They are located next to the stadium, directly across the street from Irmo High School, at Irmo Middle School on Wescott Road, and at Crossroads Intermediate School on St. Andrews Road. We discourage parking on side streets as tow-away zones are enforced.

Children 3 and under, NAfME members and administrators with SC High School League Passes with proper identification will be admitted free at the gate.
