Welcome to 2025 ServiceTitan Elite Trades Championship Series!
We would like to extend a warm welcome to West Palm Beach, Florida for the 10th annual championship – three action packed days of competition, learning and partnership celebrating the trades.
A decade ago, we embarked on a journey with IDEAL to cast a brilliant spotlight on the electrical trade, enrich our communities, and express our profound appreciation for the tireless dedication and skills that the men and women of the trades bring to work, day in and day out.
Our programs purpose extends beyond mere celebration and competition. It’s about honoring unwavering commitment. Commitment to your craft, dedication to delivering your very best, not just in this arena, but also on your job sites. It’s about the commitment you share with your fellow competitors. The ETCS community has flourished, with thousands of HVAC and plumbing contestants competing for their spot in West Palm Beach, and the right to be called National Champion. And once again, the Championship events will be recorded to air on CBS Sports Network this December.
Furthermore, you’ll have the pleasure of meeting some new partners during this year’s Championship. We extend our great appreciation to all our sponsors who not only support this competition but also your professions. These ServiceTitan Elite Trades Championship Series partners understand precisely what professionals like you need to perform at your best.
Above all, we encourage you to enjoy everything about the championship and the camaraderie it brings. May you forge new friendships, deepen relationships you’ve built through this community, and create cherished memories to carry back home. Your daily contributions to the world do not go unnoticed, and we hold deep gratitude and admiration for the inspiration you provide.
On behalf of ServiceTitan, Intersport and all our partners, I want to thank you for being part of the ServiceTitan Elite Trades Championship Series family, and we wish you the very best luck!
