Tournament Information

Tournament Entry Fees and Eligibility

All crew members on your National Team must be 2011 SKA Competition Members and have fished a minimum of two sanctioned tournaments in 2011 as Competition Members! No exceptions!

No tournament checks are deposited until October 24, 2011.

If you include your e-mail address, then you will receive a confirmation that we have received your application.

All tournament forms must be completely filled out and returned to the SKA office on or before October 14, 2011, however to avoid phone calls to let us know your intentions, we’d appreciate you sending in your forms when you get them or at least give us a call. It will truly save us a lot of time. We Appreciate Your Consideration!!!

Note to Divisional Winners

Divisional winners need to return your entry form now. Please just mark it “divisional winner.” Your entry fee will be taken care of. However, you must still come to registration and pick up your Captain’s Bag and Boat Number. A check for $270 will be sent to you two weeks before the event via mail to help cover three nights in Biloxi. (Average night stay for one room in Biloxi $90). You must still make your own room reservations. If you receive compensation and then do not show up, the money must be returned to the SKA.

Plan to win!

If you are the winner of the Contender boat, Mercury motor, and Loadmaster trailer package, be prepared to take the boat home with you or make arrangements to have it transported.
