Bloomington, Indiana – IU Athletics will be implementing its clear bag and metal detector policy for home women's basketball games at Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall for the 2022-23 season. The policy will go into effect beginning with Friday's exhibition game against Kentucky Wesleyan at 7 p.m.
The adoption of the policy comes in accordance with the recommendation of a variety of security experts, and is not in response to any specific or perceived threat. The policy is identical to the plan that has been in place for IU Men's Basketball and Football games dating back to the 2017-18 season.
The clear bag policy requires that all items fans wish to bring into the venue fit in either a clear plastic bag that does not exceed 12"x6"x12", a one-gallon clear plastic freezer bag (Ziploc or similar) or a small clutch bag with or without a handle/strap that does not exceed 4.5"x6.5" (approximately the size of a hand). Each patron is allowed one small clutch bag and one clear plastic bag that meets the above requirements.
Magnetometers (metal detectors) will be positioned at each entry point for Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall as well. The average walk through magnetometer screening time per patron is expected to range from five to seven seconds.
