Braves Caravan Guidelines

Autographs are on a first come, first serve basis and autographs are not guaranteed. Depending on the scheduled players, coaches and alumni, length of lines fluctuate. Only a limited number of autographs will be able to be completed within the period of time specified, so please plan accordingly when determining your arrival time.

A strict policy of one (1) item per player, coach or alumni is enforced. Although there is not a published list of restricted items, it is up to the discretion of the player, coach or alumni on what items they will and will not sign.

To accommodate as many fans as possible, we unfortunately will not be able to allow photographs with players, coaches and alumni during this event.

Fans will be asked to stay in their place in line once they arrive. If fans leave, they will be asked to rejoin the end of the line upon their return. There will be no saving spots for any others in line.

Players, coaches and alumni will ONLY be signing autographs at Academy Sports + Outdoors locations (unless otherwise noted at braves.com/caravan). All locations and players are subject to change.

We politely request that autograph dealers refrain from attending these fan events. Access will be at the discretion of representatives of the Atlanta Braves and Academy Sports + Outdoors. Known autograph dealers may be refused access.
