The PRCA is the largest American rodeo in the world.
It brings together the United States, Canada, Mexico, and Brazil with the best competitors out there
PRCA Events: 7 events and 10 championships
The Top 15 contestants in the standard rodeo events – bareback riding, steer wrestling, team roping (headers and healers), saddle bronc riding, tie-down roping, WPRA barrel racing and bull riding – qualify to compete at the Wrangler NFR based on money won during the regular season including Wrangler Champions Challenge events presented by Justin Boots, the Justin Boots Playoffs and Championships presented by Wrangler, the 12 RAM Circuit Finals Rodeos and the RAM National Circuit Finals Rodeo, and for many bull riders, PRCA Xtreme Bulls Tour earnings. At the conclusion of the Wrangler NFR, the sport’s world champions are determined based on total season earnings – what they win during the Wrangler NFR added to what they won during the regular season, before the Wrangler NFR.
History
This organization was created by a group of cowboys in 1936
The organization was named the “Cowboys’ Turtle Association”
This name originated because they were slow to organize, but when required they were unafraid to stick out their necks, just like turtles.
The name then changed in 1975 to Rodeo Cowboy Association, PRCA
