THE INTERNATIONAL GOVERNOR'S CUP SPORT FISHING TOURNAMENT
The Government of Baja California Sur is pleased to announce that the second annual International Governor’s Cup Tournament (IGCT) will be held in Cabo San Lucas May 5th through May 8th , 2009 just five days prior to the IGFA Offshore Championship. The event will feature two days of competitive sport fishing with five distinct divisions including a Billfish Release division and four game fish weight divisions. With entry fees starting as low as $1,500 (USD) and an across the board entry of only $5,500, the IGCT is perhaps the most affordable tournament to be held in Los Cabos. Ninety percent of the tournament entry fees will be paid out to the winning teams.
The International Governor’s Cup Tournament will also benefit the local communities of Los Cabos. A portion of tournament registration fees ( $500 per team ) will be donated to three deserving charities; Casa Abuelito Feliz, a board and care facility for the elderly; Casa Hogar, a home for orphaned or displaced boys; and Casa Cuna, a home for girls and infants in La Paz.
Tournament registration takes place on May 5th, fishing days are on May 6th and 7th . Planned events include a kick-off party, a mix of nightly fiestas and social gatherings with a Tournament Dinner and Awards night to be held on May 8th.
Join us in beautiful Cabo San Lucas for four days of camaraderie and competition while aiding the less fortunate members of the local community.
