The Jr. NFR is underway at historic Cowtown Coliseum in the Fort Worth Stockyards!
The competition was culled down from qualifiers to Top 50 in each event, who competed yesterday for a shot at the Semi-Finals. The Semis feature the Top 20, vying for a spot in the top six to advance to the Finals.
Not only will the champions in each event earn $10,000 in prize money, the timed-event title holders will get a spot to compete at the 2022 RFD-TV’s The American Rodeo at AT&T Stadium and run for a share of the $1 million!
“We will provide our contestants a one-of-a-kind opportunity and showcase the best of the best in all of youth rodeo,” said Anthony Bartkowski, Director, Athlete Development & Welfare. “Jr. Rodeo’s vision is to provide contestants the ability to perform on the biggest stage and jump-start their PRCA careers.”
Watch all the action at today’s Semi-Finals round LIVE on The Cowboy Channel or Cowboy Channel+ app. Semi-Finals Perf 1 kicks off at 11AM ET, Perf 2 at 3PM ET.
