GLBBQA ToY Program Expansion

sweetracks · 01-14-2013, 06:28 PM

I am very pleased to announce the Great Lakes BBQ Assoc.'s Team of the Year program will be expanding to Wisconsin, Illinois, and Indiana.

Rules are as follows:

You must be a member in good standing of the GlBBQA to accumulate points

A team will be awarded points for a top 20 finish in each category and overall
1st place = 20
2nd place = 19
3rd place = 18
and so on...

A teams best 3 contests will count towards the total

All KCBS Sanctioned 4 meat contests (Standard contests, no KCBS sanctioned rib burns) in Michigan, Indiana, Illinois, and Wisconsin are included

In addition to the points for each category, teams are also eligible for the "Shot in the dark" which is awarded to the team with the highest KCBS score in each category. So a 180.0000 would likely win it for each category.

The prize pool is still being worked on and I will get those details up as soon as I have them. Last years pool was $1000 and I hope to increase that significantly for this year.

I am also creating a committee for this event and would love to have a couple people from each of the states. If interested let me know.

Too bad its coming home to the Hoosier state!

The program has been a good one for us, more teams getting involved each year. Kind of anxious to see what kind of participation we can get from surrounding states.
I.G. , two lawmen on our b.o.d. can keep that from happening. GUess we could have a battle of the badges! :)
