Voodoocat - Press Pass For Sporting Events

[Jeff Canes]

There is no such thing as a generic press-pass for sporting events. You have to register with each event/team/school. I have been thing about this myself. What about insurants it your hurt on the sideline?

Can you give more information about registering?

It you want to shoot ASU soccer them you need request a pass from the ASU Sports Information Office.

A few samples: Hope you can read them

Thanks Jeff! I actually think this is on-topic, so I moved it here.

So if I get this right, I just need to find out somehow an address for the organization to ask for permission to shoot their event. So I'd imagine the "press pass" they give you with NYIP would be the credentials you provide to gain access. I'm sure they don't want people that just want to see a free game and casually shoot a few snapshots.

Interesting.... I guess the challenge would be to show you are a photographer with 'accredited media clients' on a deadline...? :scratch:
