The Colorado Junior Rodeo Association was established in 1994. The goal of this organization is to provide a quality event allowing youth to advance their rodeo talent in the spirit of fair competition and the appreciation of good sportsmanship.
In our society today, we feel it is very crucial to guide our young people in a positive direction. The Colorado Junior Rodeo Association is dedicated to help youth 5-18 years of age set goals and work to achieve them through a sport they truly enjoy.
We have expanded our membership to over 1600 children between the ages of 5 and 18 and have members in Colorado, Wyoming, Kansas and Nebraska. Our memberships are open to all families interested in rodeo, regardless of their location. More than 900 families have become involved in our association and it is so rewarding to see them working together to achieve their family member's goals.
We have a very successful rodeo season ahead of us, and plan to give over $110,000 worth of cash, prizes and scholarships to approximately 200 members who qualify for our finals to be held in Salida on August 13-15.
Finals qualification is based on total money won at all our rodeos. We invite the top 15 finishers in each event to the Finals, where they compete for the Championship of each event.
The CJRA concentrates on timed events. All rodeos have Jr/Sr Team Roping, an event that allows the parents to compete with their children in the arena.
