Aberdeen, S.D. – The 2025-26 Culver's Wolves Buddies program officially launches today. The program, sponsored by Culver's Restaurant, features a variety of incentives and benefits and is open to kids through the 12th grade. Participants can register at nsuwolves.com/wolvesbuddies.
 
A full Wolves Buddy membership includes a general admission pass to all regular season home Northern State events (excludes NCAA and NSIC post-season games), as well as the membership benefits listed below for $60. Northern State offers family pricing with two memberships set at $90 and three or more memberships set at $110. Wolves Buddies who wish to sit with their parents in the reserved section for basketball can do so by purchasing the Wolves Buddies Basketball Chairback season ticket for $100. Wolves Buddies Basketball Chairback tickets are dependent on seat availability. 
 
New for the 2025-26 season, families can now purchase a limited Wolves Buddy membership for children who fall in the 5 and under age category that already receive free admission to NSU contests. The limited membership gives all young Wolves fans a chance to be a Wolves Buddy and includes all of the official Wolves Buddies items outlined in the benefits section below for only $30 per child.
