The 2020 PRCA Contract Personnel Special Events application program will be available beginning December 1st, and will be accessible 24 hours a day.  No other forms of application will be considered for any special events or year-end award nominations. No paper applications will be sent to members.

To access the program please log on to your account on prorodeo.org to find the process under the Contract Personnel Special Event Application.

If you chose to apply for more than one position/category, an application must be completed for each position/category. Once you have completed the process successfully you will receive a confirmation email for each application you have submitted.  Keep this for the duration of the year.  It is the member’s individual responsibility to assure their application is submitted correctly and within the timeline.

The system will not accept any applications after 5:00PM (Mountain Time) on May 1st, 2020.  If you have any questions regarding an application, nomination, or the process to do so, please contact Rodeo Administration at 719.548.4870.

The PRCA continues to closely monitor the field of Cannabidiol (CBD) Oils in relation to animal welfare.

The use of CBD Oil on all horses and livestock used for contest purposes is prohibited by the PRCA at all sanctioned rodeos and will remain prohibited until further research becomes available. PRCA Rule 8.10 states: “No Stimulants or Hypnotics. No stimulants or hypnotics may be given to any animal used for contest purposes.” 

For the sake of clarity, any use of CBD sponsor patches is prohibited at all PRCA-sanctioned rodeos. 

Please note that PRCA Rule R1.7.1.3 will be in effect for the 2020 season. Meaning both ‘official’ entry rodeos and ‘unofficial’ entry rodeos WILL count toward a contestants required circuit participation count. 

Effective for the 2020 Rodeo Season – 2020 Circuit Finals Rodeos and the 2021 RAM National Circuit Finals Rodeo WILL count toward PRCA World Standings.  

The following will be effective immediately for the 2019/2020 season:

The 2019 individual Circuit Finals Steer Roping events (Badlands, Columbia River, Montana, Mountain States, Prairie, Texas, Turquoise) and the 2020 National Circuit Finals Steer Roping will count toward the 2020 World Standings and qualifications.  These events will be Official Entry Rodeos (contestant must designate unofficial).  If a contestant has not met the required participation count it will be an automatic unofficial entry rodeo for that contestant and will not count toward 2020 World Standings or qualification rodeos.  For any Steer Roping Circuit Finals Rodeo that occurs prior to the 2019 regular season cutoff date, money won at those circuit finals rodeos will count toward the 2020 World Standings and qualifications.  Official money won at the 2019 Circuit Finals Steer Roping and the 2020 National Circuit Finals Steer Roping will not count toward the All-Around.
