This is certainly shaping up to be one of the bigger attractions coming to the area courtesy of the Shreveport-Bossier Sports Convention!  Approximately 100 wakeboarding enthusiasts will converge on the Red River this weekend during the 2013 USA Wakeboard Nationals.

The event features 12 teams with as many as seven competitors per team, and some individual wakeboarders. Among the already qualified and participating teams are groups from Louisiana Tech, UL-Monroe, Ole Miss, Texas Tech and Mississippi State.

The event begins today, May 24 and will run through Sunday from Riverview Park in downtown Shreveport with competition from 8 am to 5 pm daily.

Participants will compete on both team and individual levels with at least three national champions — male, female and team — all to be crowned Sunday.
