In honoring our commitment to be one of the most angler friendly circuits, Illini Team Trail, along with one of our major sponsors, have created the House2Home Points Fund.
We will pay out a minimum of three places to teams finishing at the top of the ITT Series standings this year.
To qualify, teams must fish 7 of the 8 events. The top three teams(at minimum) will be paid for their efforts.
Teams fishing all 8 events will be able to drop their worst event to make up their 7 highest finishing tournaments. The more support we get at our events, the greater the payout and number of teams paid out.
This is all made possible by Celia Robertson and her great team at House2Home. Please give them a call for all of your real estate needs!
