Directly below is what we send to the teams regarding Open Invites for Fan Group participation at sports games:

All SW themed events with Major and Minor league teams are now considered OPEN INVITES. This means we do not have to cast and teams do not have to pay performers. Teams must welcome all fan groups on a first come basis and cannot ask for specific characters or specific amounts. They can set a maximum limit based on accommodations. Open Invites are just that: an invitation to fan groups to show up at an event in costume. Teams cannot direct fan group members to do any activities or be anywhere specific at a specific time. They may provide the groups with a list of activities to self-organize and participate in, but it is at fan group members’ own discretion. We strongly prefer that characters do not throw out first pitches, participate in puck drops, sing the National Anthem or things of that nature – if they want, fan group members may escort a child or fan to the mound, etc., but must not be directed to do so. Characters should not hold, wear, sit in or stand on any branded item or logo, especially with a team emblem. The fan groups are welcome to be photographed with others wearing the team logo/brands or in front of signage featuring the team logo/brand, however. We strongly suggest that teams provide a handler for costumed fans during activities to ensure the safety and security of said costumed fans and to protect them from overzealous game attendees. Costumed fan groups must be referred to as members from their respective fan groups and not as official SW/Disney/Lucasfilm characters.

Please do not RSVP with LFL. The corresponding team contact is listed above if you and your members are interested. Spots fill up fast - not all fan groups will get to participate in events where there is a set limit, which are based on a teams’ bandwidth for accommodation.
