WILKESVILLE, OHIO – The National Professional Fishing League (NPFL) announced that it will conduct the NPFL Military Classic, a tournament designed by veterans, for veterans.
The Military Classic is purpose-built to serve those who have served our nation. It offers a platform for veterans and active-duty service members to connect, compete and find camaraderie through the shared passion of bass fishing.
"This tournament is more than a competition; it's our way of honoring the sacrifices made by our military brothers and sisters," said NPFL President Brad Fuller. "We're excited for the opportunity to give back and provide an environment where veterans can thrive."
The event has received a commitment from the Lew's American Hero Program as a supporting partner. The American Hero Program pledges a portion of profits from the sale of every American Hero rod, reel and combo to support programs that benefit military veterans in their return to enjoying recreational opportunities outdoors, such as fishing.
The NPFL is currently coordinating with additional sponsors and partners to bring this vision to life. Full event details, including location, format and registration, will be released in the near future.
The Military Classic will be 100-percent centered around bringing back a meaningful, impactful experience for the veteran and active-duty community through the sport of bass fishing.
