COLUMBIA, SC - July 21, 2026 — Richland School District One has selected Hometown as its exclusive digital ticketing partner, adopting Box Office across the district's athletic programs to deliver a faster, more consistent experience for fans, families, and administrators.
Box Office gives Richland School District One's athletic department secure, mobile-friendly, and cashless ticketing so fans spend less time in line and more time in the stands. Real-time sales reporting helps athletic directors and administrators track revenue as it comes in, and integrated payment processing means fewer manual reconciliation hours after every event. Cashless entry moves fans through the gate faster, giving staff one less thing to manage on a busy Friday night.
With Hometown, administrators gained a trusted set of digital tools to manage their events with confidence, strengthening financial transparency and reducing administrative workload across the district.
"Having experienced multiple platforms, the difference became clear. Hometown's technology, customer support, and commitment to the space are simply unmatched,” said Bob Matz, Athletic Director at Richland School District One. “We're thrilled to be back with a partner that treats ticketing as a mission, not just a feature."
"Richland School District One holds a high standard for its students and its community, and our job is to match it on game day," said Dennis Levene, CEO of Hometown. "We're proud they chose Hometown as their exclusive ticketing partner, and proud to bring the same reliability and support to their events that their community deserves."
Richland School District One joins a growing number of districts choosing Hometown to simplify event operations for staff and provide fans with a seamless way to buy, manage, and scan their tickets.
