DEPARTMENT OF ATHLETICS INTERVIEW POLICY
Interviews other than those immediately following a contest must be requested and arranged through Athletics Communications. Interviews and photo sessions will be arranged by Athletics Communications at a time that will not interfere with the student-athlete's academic schedule or coach or administrator’s daily responsibilities. Requests should be made at least one day in advance to allow proper notification to the player, coach, or administrator. At no time will the home or cell phone number of a coach or student-athlete be released to the media. In the case of telephone interview requests, arrangements will be made for the student-athlete to contact the requesting media member.
WORKING PRESS CREDENTIALS
Press and photographer media credentials will be issued to members of the working media only. Credentials for all Dominican home games can be obtained by contacting Brandon Davis via e-mail (brandon.davis@dominican.edu). Credentials will be left at the ticket window. Press pass requests should be made no later than 24 hours prior to a home contest to ensure space availability.
PRESS ROW
Only credentialed members of the media, coaches, league officials, and designated administrators and staff will be allowed to sit at specified areas of the scorer’s table. This applies to women’s volleyball, men’s and women’s basketball, men’s and women’s soccer, and men’s lacrosse.
PRESS ROW SERVICES
Team and individual statistics are available online at dominicanathletics.com for most sports. Halftime and postgame play-by-play and box scores will be made available to members of media in attendance upon request. Basketball box scores will be provided during media timeouts when applicable. Please inform the scorer’s table before the start of the game or match that you would like these materials provided. Live in-game statistics are available at dominicanathletics.com/live.
POSTGAME INTERVIEWS
Dominican University of California locker rooms are closed to all media. A 10-minute cooling off period will be enforced, after which the Dominican head coach and requested players will be made available to the media. Postgame interviews will be conducted outside each team's respective locker room. Requests for visiting coaches and players should be made through the opponent's sports information contact.
RADIO
Radio stations planning to broadcast Dominican home contests must make arrangements with Athletics Communications at least two weeks prior to the requested game. Telephone lines will be supplied by the University, provided the requested notice is given. Wireless internet is available inside the Conlan Center and is limited at the John F. Allen Athletics Complex.
