Qualification
However, tournament directors do not count. If directors are fortunate to finish in the top 50% they will not take a team out of the Classic. Hence, in the example above, if directors finished 5th place overall, the top 21 teams would actually qualify.
The starting order will be determined by total YTD points. The team with the most points will be boat 1 and so forth.
If one individual of a team cannot attend the classic, the remaining member can if they so choose partner up with a member of another team who also has a team member that cannot attend. They may fish from the same boat, but not as a new team for the classic, each individual will weigh in their catch to count as their team’s, as fished throughout the year's, weight.
1. Any Team fishing a total of six Regular Season Tournaments has qualified for the classic. One Pay Skip is allowed!
2. Any Team fishing a total of three Super Saturday Tournaments has qualified for the classic. No Pay Skips allowed!
NOTE: Changed for 2022 - Super Saturday Tournament results or points will not count toward the regular season for qualification toward the Classic. A team must fish fish 6 of 8 Regular Season Tournaments OR 3 of 4 Super Saturday Tournaments for a path to the classic.
3. The top 50% of teams from an average of all tournament boat draws will qualify for the classic. For example, if the averages of the Regular Season or Super Saturday Tournaments is 40 teams, the top 20 teams in the standings will qualify. A team who finished outside of 20th place for example but participated in all 6 Regular Season Tournaments or All 3 Super Saturday Tournaments still qualifies.
However, tournament directors do not count. If directors are fortunate to finish in the top 50% they will not take a team out of the Classic. Hence, in the example above, if directors finished 5th place overall, the top 21 teams would actually qualify.

The results are in
The 2022 R&B season is in the books. As for the Classic, the weather was less the stellar, I'm sure all present would agree that this picture taken Sunday morning during the lineup just prior to blast off, certainly DOES NOT represent the weather, lake conditions and fishing conditions endured thought the weekend. My (our) hope, is that like us you can see the weekend as a great time spent on the water with friends and fellow competitors.
Thanks, your R&B Directors
