RE: FAN High School Fishing Series
January 24, 2014
Faith Angler Network is excited to announce the launch of the FAN High School Fishing Series in 2014!
High School Fishing has grown tremendously in the past 24 months in Central Texas, this time last year there were 3 high school programs, and today there are over 30 programs actively participating in High School Fishing Events and new programs are starting up weekly.
“Our decision to move into this new and exciting arena of High School Fishing was prompted by the sheer joy the kids have being on the water and learning everything they can about bass fishing,” stated Scott Anderson, Director of FAN High school Fishing Programs.
High School youth are the most impressionable. We feel as a Faith based organization we could have a big impact on them with our focus on Christian Principles, by providing boat captains that can also serve as mentors, and coaching them bass fishing techniques. Academics, character, and sportsmanship are our key focal points, and will be strictly guarded.
We will also be introducing the FAN High School Speaker Series, where top FLW and BASS pros will provide an intimate setting exclusively for the High School anglers and speak of a variety of topics, revolving on the theme Faith, Family, Fishing.
The FAN High School Fishing Series will include 3 qualifying events and open tournament, and a Championship in the fall where over $5000 in Scholarships will be awarded.
Our goal is to create a fun yet competitive environment that offers the feel of a professional ran tournament trail. Top finishing anglers will receive trophies; tournament quality fishing gear, in addition to other products.
We also wanted to recognize the Captains and will have incentives and prizes especially for them from our Sponsors
The 2014 season will kick off on Lake Travis March 1st with Lake Austin and LBJ included on the spring calendar
