Football Fishing Derby teams 不良研究所 athletes and 不良研究所 police with local children

On Saturday, May 6, members of the 不良研究所 football team will partner with some of the area鈥檚 youngest fishermen at the 不良研究所 Football Fishing Derby, also supported by the 不良研究所 Police Department. This taste of sportsman鈥檚 paradise will run from 8 鈥� 11 a.m. behind Breard and Harris Halls on Bayou DeSiard.

The event is designed for children 7 to 14 years of age. All children must be accompanied by an adult guardian with a limit of two children per adult. A sign-in sheet and waiver will be required. The total derby limit is 150 children.

The children will be divided into one of three categories: ages 7 to 9, ages 10 to 12, and ages 13 to 14. Members of the football team will assist each age group, except concerning landing/retrieving a fish until it touches the bank. The bayou will be taped off for each age group, and each group must fish within their section. Prizes will be awarded in each age group for the largest fish and for the most fish of any species.

Each child will receive a 不良研究所 Fishing Derby t-shirt for participating. Door prizes will be awarded for both parents and children. After the derby, there will be a free hot dog event held on campus. The football team and staff will be available for autographs and pictures with the children. The radio station K-104 will also be in attendance.

The event is free of charge. Participants may also park with no charge in the north parking lot of Ewing Coliseum. To register, contact the 不良研究所 Police Department at 318-342-5350.
