Reminders:

Your phone is your ticket! Don't forget to download the Rider App, powered by SaskTel, onto your smartphone and have your digital tickets ready before you come to Mosaic Stadium. We promise it's easy, but we created a tutorial video here and have a full FAQ and written tutorial at Riderville.com, just in case!

Come prepared with your clear bag. The Club has moved to a clear bag policy for all Saskatchewan Roughrider games in 2021 and beyond. Each fan, including children, can bring in one clear bag sized 12" x 6" x 12" or smaller. More details on the clear bag policy can be found here.

In transit? Whether you arrive at the stadium on four wheels or two, there are options available! The bike valet opens at 3:00 p.m. on game day and is staffed by volunteers through REAL. The bikes are inside a fenced compound that is monitored throughout its hours of operation. Please note that your bike must be picked up within one hour after the game ends. The bike valet is located by the South East exterior of the Stadium by Gate 4.

In addition, Rider Transit presented by WorkSafe Saskatchewan is back! That's right, free guest bus transit is available from various locations across the city (Southland Mall, University of Regina, Warehouse district, the Delta Hotel, Victoria Ave and Scarth Street) and at a NEW north end location: The Turvey Centre, starting two hours and 15 minutes before kickoff time.

Week 7:

Through six weeks, it's clear that the running game is firing on all cylinders for the Green and White. With 754 yards on the ground through six games, the Riders lead the league in rushing by almost 200 yards over the next closest team. Look for running backs Jamal Morrow and Frankie Hickson to add to that total in Week 7 with an assist from the offensive line and fullbacks.

Kian Schaffer-Baker has emerged as one of the Riders most reliable receiving options, recording at least three catches and 30 yards in every game this season. The second year wideout leads the team and is seventh in the CFL with 370 receiving yards. With three majors, Schaffer-Baker has already surpassed his touchdown total from a season ago.

The linebacker unit has played as advertised with Darnell Sankey, Larry Dean, and Derrick Moncrief leading the way. Heading into this week, Sankey is tied for the league lead with 32 defensive tackles while Dean is just behind him with 31 tackles of his own. Moncrief is tied for the league lead with three interceptions in six games.
