Celebrating IGFA's Representatives
Since the IGFA was established nearly 85 years ago in 1939, IGFA Representatives have been among the most dedicated supporters of the organization and have been essential in shaping the IGFA's reputation as the world’s most prestigious international angling and conservation organization.
Currently, the IGFA Representatives Program has over 200 members in 72 countries and territories across the world. These exceptionally dedicated volunteers play a vital role in the expansion of IGFA programs and initiatives on an international level. Whether hosting Passports to Fishing programs for children and their families, assisting IGFA Headquarters with groundbreaking fisheries research projects, speaking about the IGFA at local clubs and events, translating IGFA Angling Rules and membership materials, or serving on one of the newly formed Regional Councils, IGFA Representatives are truly bringing our mission and vision to life around the world.
It is important to note that IGFA Representatives are not paid employees of the IGFA. They receive no financial compensation for the enormous amount of time and resources they invest in the organization. In the simplest sense, they are volunteers. But they are more than that. IGFA Representatives embody the spirit of the organization and promote the IGFA in their regions through their actions. They are ambassadors for the IGFA and our sport, and without this network of passionate individuals, the IGFA would not be where it is today.
The IGFA would like to thank all our dedicated Representatives. And we would especially like to recognize the hard work and dedication of those IGFA Representatives who have served for 10 years, or more, for their tireless support. Each of these individuals will receive a custom, hand-signed certificate to commemorate their service to the IGFA, and moving forward, each IGFA Representative will receive the certificate upon their 10 year anniversary.
To all our IGFA Representatives: Thank YOU for being at the core of the IGFA!
