2020 Fishing for the Fight Tournament cancelled
Due to COVID-19 pandemic
May 21, 2020

Fishing For the Fight is a charitable organization that hosts an annual fly fishing competition that raises funds for Kickin’ Cancer in Sublette County. 100% of the proceeds generated from this event go directly to families fighting cancer, people with special needs, and children with chronic illness.

Due to the uncertainty of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Fishing For the Fight Board has come to the difficult decision to cancel the 2020 Tournament. The event was scheduled to be held July 16-18, 2020.

"We thoughtfully considered all the angles and options and felt at this time we needed to make this call to support local and national efforts to keep everyone safe," said Chauncey Goodrich, President & Founder of Fishing For the Fight.

"We are so thankful for our generous donors and sponsors. We simply could not put this tournament on without all of you. Because of your ongoing support we have a strong balance sheet that allows us to continue to financially support many families. We will not be soliciting donors and sponsors this year, but we hope for your continued support for the 2021 tournament. FFF also wants to thank all our landowners for the years of their continued support. The donations of land use are what allows the FFF Tournament to be successful," Goodrich said in a letter to supporters.

The Board will continue to review and act on all requested applications they receive. They will make good use of the pause to continue to work on new ideas and improvements to ensure the 2021 Tournament will be the best one yet.

The FFF organizers hope to gather all the guides and have them tour all possible fishing sections to be more familiar with all the tournaments fishing beats. They hope to be able to do this on the preset dates of the tournament since the guides would have had this time already set aside. They will be contacting the landowners in hopes of allowing the organization access to do this.

The organization will be contacting teams and sponsors that have already registered and paid for the 2020 FFF Tournament. They will refund the sponsorship or team fee for the 2020 tournament upon request. Payments may also be deposited with the organization to transfer to the 2021 tournament.
