TNT Fireworks named title sponsor of the 2025 Bassmaster Team Championship at Lake Hartwell
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. — B.A.S.S. officials announced today that TNT Fireworks, the nation’s largest distributor of consumer fireworks, has signed on as the title sponsor of the 2025 TNT Fireworks Bassmaster Team Championship, which will be held December 3-6 on South Carolina’s Lake Hartwell.
The Bassmaster Team Championship marks the culmination of a yearlong grass-roots competition that gives anglers from team trails across the country the chance to fish for one of the most coveted prizes in competitive bass fishing — a berth in the 2026 Bass Pro Shops Bassmaster Classic presented by Under Armour.
More than 200 two-angler teams representing B.A.S.S.-sanctioned team trails nationwide will compete over two days for the team title. The top three teams will then split up and compete individually in a two-day fish-off, where the winner will earn the final spot in the Bassmaster Classic field.
“TNT Fireworks is thrilled to be the official sponsor of the 2025 Bassmaster Team Championship,” said Carson Anderson, Managing Director at TNT Fireworks. “We look forward to watching anglers from across the country experience the excitement and energy of competition at beautiful Lake Hartwell.”
TNT Fireworks, headquartered in Florence, Ala., has been lighting up celebrations for more than 100 years. The company’s passion for bringing people together through family-friendly entertainment aligns perfectly with the community spirit and excitement of Bassmaster events.
Lake Hartwell, one of the Southeast’s most storied fisheries, has hosted multiple major B.A.S.S. tournaments, including the Bassmaster Classic, and is known for its healthy populations of both largemouth and spotted bass. The deep, clear reservoir straddling the Georgia-South Carolina border provides the perfect backdrop for a championship-level event.
“The Bassmaster Team Championship is one of the most special events we host each year because it represents the heart of competitive fishing, everyday anglers earning their shot at the Classic,” said B.A.S.S. Nation Tournament Manager GL Compton. “Having TNT Fireworks as our title sponsor adds an extra spark to an already exciting event. Their enthusiasm for community, celebration and competition mirrors what this championship is all about.”
Fans can follow live coverage of the 2025 TNT Fireworks Bassmaster Team Championship on Bassmaster.com and across B.A.S.S. social media platforms, including live weigh-ins, photo galleries and on-the-water updates.
