The PWT and WWA hand out Golden Tickets at Amateur Contests!

Six amateur riders will earn spots to ride on the PWT this summer

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

April 20th, 2010

The WWA, and the MasterCraft Pro Wakeboard Tour are handing out 6 Golden Tickets this summer as invitations to come ride at a Pro Tour event. The tickets will be handed out at 6 different amateur events throughout the year, and each rider who earns a ticket will be invited to ride with the top 40 riders in the world on the PWT!

There are 3 WWA Grass Roots contests, and 3 INT Amateur Tour contests that these tickets will be handed out at. During the WWA events, the event organizer will choose a division, and the winner of that division will receive the Golden Ticket. At the INT events, the winner of the Outlaw division will receive the Golden Ticket.

These 6 riders will receive a free entry fee into the PWT, and a free WWA Pro Membership to compete. “We want to work our way into building a feeder system for the Pro Tour and other high caliber Pro events” stated Shawn Perry, Executive Director of the WWA. “These Golden Tickets are the first step in getting some of the Ams in our sport accustomed to riding at this high level.”

“We are extremely stoked to be expanding our relationship with the WWA. The WWA has been the sanctioning body of the Pro Tour since the beginning, and we feel that the Golden Ticket will be an awesome step toward helping to further develop wakeboarding from the grass roots to the pro level.”  PWT Tournament Director Chris Bischoff
