Junior Steer & Bull Riding

Junior Steer & Bull Riding are our newest events for the young rodeo fan. Ages 10 - 12 (steer riding) and ages 13 - 16 (bull riding) compete to see who can ride the steer (or bull) the longest. Each rider is judged and receives points just like the pro bullriders do, except ride time is 6 seconds instead of 8 seconds. The winner receives a shiny new belt buckle and their photo on this webpage.

So if your young cowboy or cowgirl is interested, please call for complete details!
