As of Friday, Sept. 30, the UNO Bookstore has taken over management of the Baxter Arena team store ("The Mav Locker Room") said Eric Hager, manager of the UNO Bookstore. The arena team store was run by the UNO Athletic Department in its first year of operation.
One of the biggest advantages for fans is that the apparel that the team (players and coaches) wear will now be available for purchase by the public.
The Team Store will open two hours before game time, and remain open after the end of the game. (“We’ll close when we get kicked out,’ Hager joked.) A common complaint from fans last season was that the store was often closed.
Other improvements:
- There will be a phone number for the team store. (Believe it or not, it didn’t have a separate phone number previously.)
- Hager expects that gift cards for the team store will be available for purchase before Christmas. (A great gift for the Mav Hockey fan in your life!)
Hager says fans can expect to hear more about the team store during games, especially hockey games. They are planning a “pop up” store in the concourse, and will be doing in-game promotions, including possibly using the MavX app.
The UNO Bookstore is located on the main campus in the Milo Bail Student Center. |
