RODEO ENTRY

Contestants will register as a member in the age-appropriate division through JRSRA’s Google Documents and Forms. 

• Online entries for each season rodeo will be from 8am-8pm on the Monday prior to the weekend the rodeo is scheduled.
• Only one of the team roping partners needs to enter the team for a rodeo. You must specify which partner is heading and heeling.
• A list of the entry dates will be posted on the season schedule.
• When there is a 2-day/1-Go rodeo scheduled or a Performance/Slack rodeo scheduled, the form will give members the option of choosing their first and second preference of performance/Go/Slack to be placed in.
• All efforts will be made by the Secretary to place members in their first preference, however performances need to be kept as even as possible for stock and show length, so it may not always be possible. The Secretary may give priority to the earliest entries, so entering online early in the day can help with your chances of getting the performance you prefer most.
• Payment for rodeo entries can be paid in cash when checking into the rodeo; or made on the Online system within 24 hours of the close of entries.
• Payments made through the Online system will have a convenience fee added to the entry fees to cover transaction charges and may vary due to vendor and market changes.
