KT Wiz announced on the 15th that it has prepared comprehensive safety operation measures to prevent heat-related illnesses among spectators and on-site staff for the first home series held after the Heatwave Break.
According to the club, KT will immediately implement multifaceted measures ranging from adjusting gate opening times to strengthening emergency response systems, prioritizing the safety of fans visiting the baseball stadium and on-site personnel supporting games amidst consecutive days of extreme heat.
First, to minimize outdoor waiting time for spectators during peak heat hours, the stadium gate opening time was delayed by 30 minutes, shifting from two hours before game start to one hour and 30 minutes prior.
Operation of "Heatwave Rest Areas" to create comfortable rest spaces will be significantly strengthened. The club is expanding the space and scale of rest areas that have been operating since July and has additionally installed mobile air conditioners, cooling facilities, and products in hallways. In particular, rest area infrastructure in high-traffic spectator zones such as third base and the 5th-floor Sky Zone has been substantially increased.
Emergency response systems have also been meticulously reinforced. In addition to existing first aid rooms, KT has installed additional emergency response booths at three key locations near spectator seats: the outfield, third-base infield, and the center of the 5th floor. Emergency medical technicians and emergency kits are now permanently stationed to ensure swift initial measures are taken when heat-related illnesses occur.
Support items for on-site staff and consideration items for spectators have also been expanded. A total of 80,000 hand fans will be distributed sequentially to all fans visiting the baseball stadium to prepare for heatwaves. In addition to players, ice mats (cooling mats) usable during games will be provided to all on-site staff, including ball boys and ground keepers who support games in extreme heat.
Furthermore, KT plans to continuously broadcast promotional videos regarding the locations of Heatwave Rest Areas, the importance of hydration and rest, and national action guidelines for heatwaves via scoreboards and other displays to encourage spectators to comply with safety rules.
