Field access will be limited to credentialed athletes and coaches. You will get the exact # of wrist bands for coaches, athletes and Unified Partners that is on your registration form. We will not be passing out additional field access wrist bands.
 
Families, spectators and fans, etc., will only be allowed into the East stands. They will not be given field access. All spectators must enter the stadium via the ramp next to the Patriots Hall of Fame.  Please help us to inform your families of this.
 
Remember we are a guest of Gillette Stadium and the New England Patriots; please help us by respecting the Stadium's rules and wishes so we can continue to be guests of the team and have our football teams play in the best stadium in New England.
