Mizzou Baseball Credential Request Form
Thank you for your interest in Mizzou baseball during the 2026 season. In order to apply for a media credential, please fill out the form below. Individuals will need to fill out this form for each game they would like to attend.
APPLICATION DOES NOT GUARANTEE ACCESS/CREDENTIAL APPROVAL
Credentials are provided to working members of the media to assist in the coverage of Mizzou baseball events. Credentials are not transferable, revocable and must be worn at all times while at Taylor Stadium.
Application and Approval
• Credentials must be requested 48 hours before the scheduled event. All credentials can be picked up outside of Taylor Stadium at the ticket booth, 90 minutes before the scheduled time of first pitch.
• Media credentials may be issued to working members of the media representing recognized media outlets in the business of news gathering/sports reporting as a primary function of their business. The types of media outlets eligible for credentials include newspapers, websites, magazines, wire services, college (sport-specific) publications, TV, radio and podcasts. The dissemination of editorial content must be a primary purpose of the media outlet, and the outlet must demonstrate a record of sustained, original coverage of college sports on a regular basis.
• Credentials will not be issued to representatives whose outlet exists solely as a platform for distributing unoriginal content (press releases, press conference footage or aggregate news sites). Online outlets should typically be affiliated with a national or regional media organization, or host a website that provides substantial coverage of college athletics and/or Mizzou Athletics, and employ at least one full-time, permanent employee responsible for producing the site’s content. Outlets that are message boards without regular, substantial news/editorial/feature coverage by a full-time journalist could be denied credentials. Representatives should be on assignment for that outlet with a specific editorial assignment or will be subject to revocation.
Access and Conduct
• Access to the field is restricted to Mizzou Athletics staff only. Media members are not permitted on the playing field.
• Proper conduct and professionalism are expected at all times.
• Photographers and videographers are permitted to shoot around the field but are not permitted to go onto the field. Photographers and videographers must be courteous of spectators and keep from obstructing a line of sight to the playing field. There is a camera platform located on each side of the Taylor Stadium press box to set up cameras.
• Space is limited, and all credentialed photographers are responsible for sharing access respectfully. Repeated violations of this policy may result in removal and/or loss of future credential privileges.
• Credential holders are not permitted to seek autographs, request personal photographs/videos, solicit/take equipment, etc., from Mizzou Athletics student-athletes or coaches. Such actions or requests will be viewed as a breach of professional conduct and are grounds for credential revocation.
• No flash photography allowed while the teams are playing.
Post-game Media Interviews
• Post-game interviews with Coach Kerrick Jackson and student-athletes will be conducted in the team meeting room, located in the McArtor Baseball Facility down the left field line. Media members should meet a member of the Mizzou Strategic Communications staff at the entrance behind the left field concourse.
Game Day Operations
• Complimentary Wi-Fi is provided for working media. Ethernet cables are provided for visiting radio broadcasts. WiFi login information is available in the press box.
• Live game statistics are available on http://statbroadcast.com

• These policies aim to ensure a professional and efficient environment for media coverage of baseball games at Taylor Stadium, while also maintaining the integrity and safety of the event for all participants and attendees.
