The Hoop Vibe Events Guidelines

The Hoop Vibe Coverage Overview

The Hoop Vibe press credentials are granted to credible media representatives who have shown evidence that their attendance and/or coverage results in the elevation, promotion, and exposure of the student-athletes who play in The Hoop Vibe events.

Media credentials will be thoroughly reviewed for approvals, and monitored to ensure guidelines are being followed at all The Hoop Vibe events. We thank you for the support and coverage of The Hoop Vibe events and players.

Videography

Videography must be conducted without disruption to event operations that include, but are not limited to: the visibility of college coaches who are sitting courtside, scorekeepers, security, and in high traffic areas that become congested, or areas that may be deemed as a safety concern.

Filming locations will be defined for each event and communicated in advance by The Hoop Vibe staff.

Any video posted online must include The Hoop Vibe logo and be tagged to @thehoopvibe social media handle.

Conclusion

The guidelines above  have  been  developed  to  provide  accredited  media members the guidance and  standards  set forth  for  The Hoop Vibe Events. Any breach of these guidelines will be reviewed case by case and appropriate action will take place, including the withdrawal of the credential for a specific event, or any future events.
