RISAA Tournament
Next weekend is the RISAA MS Shore Tourney with proceeds going to Multiple Sclerosis.
I need to know - quickly  if people here would fish the tourney as Team S-B if I provided the entry fee ($50 team fee, nothing for team members). It's a shore only RI tournament.
The details are sketchy at this point but it is run much like the Fall MDA Surf Club Challenge.
If you are interested, please add your name to the list if you are in or a maybe 
Thanks,
John |

John,
I am seriously considering not fishing Tri state and fishin for S-B in this one.
It seems there are better quality fish in RI right now and I have already set this weekend aside for fishing.
If people are interested in putting together a S-B team is anyone interested in grabbing a room for the S-B Team. You know 4, 5, 6 of us just having a crash pad to nap out and coordinate our efforts.

Well, apparently we missed the dealine though some had told me it was still open. I wish it had been better documented. There is also apparently some controversy (again) on whether we can be defined as a "club" in tourneys such as these. I will keep you all up to date as I find out more.
So, with that all said, if you do intend to fish, please do so as a member of your respective organizations. I know the Newport Club is fishing so if I enter anything, it will likely be under the Newport Club...
Thanks,
John

i have to agree with the "club" controversy again. we went over this last fall and i don't want to make this a big battle again. i am sure many of those the browse, post, and signed up for sb.com to fish are members of clubs entered into this tournament. go out there this weekend and support your club and fish for them! if you are not a member of one of the participating clubs, come to the awards breakfast and ask some of the participating clubs about how to join their club. |

Seawolf, I'm not looking to go full circle on this again but like I said last time, the amount of ways we function as a "club" and in many ways go beyond traditional clubs, plus the way we support traditional clubs is all the more reason we should be included in these tournaments.
Unlike some of these other clubs, we don't get our panties all in a bunch when someone that is a member of another club choses to fish for another club. If you use a legal definition of clubs, such as state or federally recognized organizations forumlated with regs and guidelines (like Robert's Rules) then half the clubs fishing these tournaments would need to be disqualified.
I am just a little disturbed that some clubs and some people feel the need to define a narrow set of rules to define "clubs" and are likely missing the point here. The point is to foster some generally good natured competition between organizations AND support a good cause at the same time.

John,
Our club (Newport County) is indeed entered. Feel free to enter any eligible fish for us. Many of our members will be out this weekend looking for some bass.
Good fishing to all.
