The Sliders’ season opener is scheduled for May 20 in Kentucky, against the Florence Freedom. The team kicks off its home opener May 29 in Oestrike Stadium against the Windy City Thunder Bolts.
“There’s a lot of interest,” Garland said when asked about local ticket sales. He said the team expects 800-1000 people in attendance at most games, but with most tickets being “walk-up sales.”
Tickets are prices at $8, with $1 discounts for seniors 55 years old or older, Children younger than 13 and EMU students with student identification. He said there are still discounts available for season tickets and package deals.
