Ponca City, Okla. (April 24, 2012) — The Bass Federation’s brand new Dream Team Rally tournament trail is excited to announce the TBF of Kansas is scheduled to host its first TBF Dream Team Rally event. The event is scheduled for July 1, 2012 on Lake Wilson Reservoir, at Hell Creek boat ramp in Wilson State Park, Kansas. The TBF of Kansas Dream team event will follow TBF’s Student Angler Federation, 2nd Annual Kansas High School Fishing State Championship on Lake Wilson, June 30. Make it a family event! The event is open to ALL TBF and SAF members. Interested teams can go online at bassfederation.com; Dream Team; to enter, the tourney # is 1025. ALL interested TBF clubs and state federations can go online and register to host their own event today!
“The TBF sanctioned event is bringing grassroots fishing back to Kansas,” TBF of Kansas President and Kansas Dream Team event coordinator, Larry Freesemann, said. “TBFKS is proud to host one of the first Dream Team events in the country! Anglers of all ages and skill levels are welcome; each boat fishes as a team for the same prize, a coveted spot on the 2013 TBF Dream Team.”
“Think about it, even if there are 50 or 75 Dream Team Rallies in the US this year when it comes championship time those 50 or 75 qualified teams not only get a “paid” vacation but also get to compete for a new Ranger boat plus a national pile of cash and other prizes!” TBF President, Robert Cartlidge, said. “The odds don’t get much better than that! The more Dream Team events held the bigger the payout, and it all goes back to the members!”
TBF Dream Team Rallies are designed to fill a void not only in the federation, but also the fishing industry to give anglers exactly what they’ve been craving. Fish no-hassle events close to home; fish with who you want, when you want, where you want. All Dream Team Rally event payouts and advancements are based on 25 boats. For every 25th team, one team advances with paid entry fees to the 2013 Dream Team National Championship Rally, with travel, hotel and boat gas stipends and the chance to win big time “dream” prizes and payouts at a “dream” vacation event. Payouts will be big and deep to the field, and the national team champions will walk away with a Ranger Boat Dream Rig! Register to host an event anywhere in the US anytime in 2012, or sign up to compete in the first Dream Team Rally on Hamilton Lake, in Hamilton, Ind., or both! There’s no limit on how many Dream Team Rallies members can host or fish; so get started now!
