Our circuit will not change, we will still count 4 of the 5 Points Opens for the 2023 CCBM Upper Chesapeake Bay Open Series Points Championship.
Nothing changes for our CCBM Opens and our Teams.
This is just a voluntary extra for people that would like to join the Bass Pro Shops Bassmaster Team Championship with a chance to fish their 2 day team tournament in late November or December.
Teams will sign up to compete in the Bassmaster Team Championship ( BTC ) thru our Opens.
Cost to register as a Bassmaster Team Championship member is $ 10 per person ( $ 20 per team per year ).
The money will go to B.A.S.S. and will allow entrants to compete for the final spot in the 2024 Bass Master Classic.
Bassmaster Team Championship Membership will receive BASS Times.
Teams must consist of two (2) members. No single teams permitted.
For every 25 teams our CCBM Open Series has registered for the Bassmaster Team Championship, we will be given 1 spot in the Bassmaster Bass Pro Championship Tournament.
If 25 Teams register, our overall 2023 Points Champions will be eligible to fish the Bassmaster Bass Pro Championship TX.
If 50 teams register, our top 2 Points finishers will go.
If 75 teams register, our top 3 teams will go to the TX.
Are there any extra actions that we should take if we want to participate?
Do we register for the open differently?
No difference, just pay the 20 fee
The Open registration form was modified for this year to include the option to register for the BTC and to commit to the related regulations. This will be used to print out a form for each registered team to sign at the first Open they fish.
