FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 
PONCA CITY, Okla. (Mar 20, 2013) – The Bass Federation (TBF), in partnership with FLW announced it will host the 2013 Student Angler Federation (SAF) Oklahoma High School Fishing State Championship on Sunday, April 7. The event will be held in Delaware County on Grand Lake in Grove, Okla., launching out of Wolf Creek Park. It will be an exciting event as the 2013 TBF Federation National Championship will also be held on Grand Lake launching out of Wolf Creek Park the following week, April 8-13.
The state championship is a two person team event for students in grades 9-12. Registration for anglers and their “coach,” who will provide the boat they compete in, is online at HighSchoolFishing.org. Check-in takes place from 6:30-8pm CST on Saturday, April 6 at Wolf Creek Park in Grove, Okla., 
with a mandatory rules briefing to follow at 8pm CST. We highly encourage all teams to pre-register online or by phone in advance to avoid late registration fees.
Students and parents can go to HighSchoolFishing.org for details on the Student Angler Federation (SAF) and to sign up. Cost is only $25/ year and includes full TBF and FLW benefits, including FLW Magazine e-Edition and insurance coverage for students and their club. The state champions from each state will advance to an FLW/TBF High School Fishing Conference Championship. Conference winners will advance to the FLW/TBF High School Fishing National Championship held in conjunction with the FLW College Fishing National Championship in the spring of 2014. All SAF members nationwide and all state championship participants automatically qualify for the largest event in high school fishing, the 2013 High School Fishing World Finals. At these events students will compete for thousands in college scholarships and prizes. Each team qualifying for a conference and/or national championship will receive a travel allowance to help offset expenses. The National Champions will also receive a $5,000 scholarship each to use at the university of their choice.
