THE BASS FEDERATION
2022 HIGH SCHOOL SPRING SCHEDULE GETS UNDERWAY
The spring tournament season has arrived throughout much of the country , and that means that the 2022 Student Angler Federation ( SAF ) season is about to kick off . Students competing in SAF tournaments pay a $ 25 membership fee , which includes an MLF High School membership . That one-time fee allows high school anglers to enter any SAF-sanctioned tournament in their state without an entry fee .
For any state champion who is 16 years old or older , TBF will pay their entry fees , adult membership TBF fees and provide a co-angler spot in the TBF National Semi-Finals for their home state . The 48 state champions ( 47 states and one Canadian champion ) all earn a trip to the High School Fishing World Finals and National Championship . In 2021 , TBF awarded more than $ 3 million in college scholarships and prizes to student anglers in the High School Fishing World Finals .
