The Texas Youth Rodeo Association (TYRA) 501 (C) (3) is a family oriented organization that strives to produce youth rodeos that support and promote the sport of youth rodeo throughout Texas. The 2020 TYRA Rodeo Season was interrupted from the COVID-19. We were only able to have a few rodeos and all of the sudden the world was shut down. We had to cancel all of our rodeos, we are offering all members that paid in 2020 and they left their membership money at TYRA to waive the membership fee this year. WE ARE ALSO GOING TO GRANDFATHER THE 2020 GRADUATING SENIORS TO COME AND PARTICIPATE IN THE RODEOS AS WELL IF THEY WERE PAID MEMBERS! (Since we offered Senior Scholarships in 2020, only the 2021 Seniors will be able to apply for Sr Scholarships). |
We did get to have an awesome Open Rodeo at the end of July that was very well attended and was a Jr Rodeo PRCA, American Qualifier. There
were also eleven (11) scholarships awarded for the year, for a total of $11,000.00
for their continued education. In the past eleven years TYRA has given out 147
scholarships totaling $175,750.00. Flying J Saddlery buckles were awarded to the Event Champions and All Arounds
in each age group. |

• Goat tying – we will be changing the goat every 3 runs, if the horse crosses over the rope or goat, or if the contestant’s horse comes in contact with the goat or rope prior to the contestant signaling for time, a ten (10) second penalty will be assessed. • Breakaway catch as catch can – the calf’s head must pass through the loop. The loop must draw up on any part of the calf’s body behind the head. • TYRA in the raffle tickets will continue requiring that each contestant sell $200 worth of tickets, each additional child in the family will only have to sell $50 – all this money goes back to the prizes. • TYRA will no longer participate in the jacket give away, and there will not be a buckle for the top seller – TYRA will continue in giving cash prizes to the 3 top sellers – 1 st - $300, 2nd - $200, 3rd - $100. • SUB JR BREAKAWAY – will be added this year as a trial – NO AA POINTS WILL COUNT TOWARDS THE SUB JR – as of now we will be offering an Year End and Finals Buckle to see where this event goes. We have had some interest and trying to see if this event will work. • Yearly memberships will be $75 per contestant • ADULT MEMBERSHIPS – will be available at $5.00 per adult. You asked we listened – with this membership you will be able to come to the annual meetings and vote – in the past it was just the clubs that could vote and we basically had no participation – WE WILL LISTEN! • In case of tie with the YEAR END TRAILERS - we will break the tie with 1st ,2nd, 3rd, etc. if we still can not break we will flip – the one that does not get the trailer will receive a saddle. |

“Helping Youth Today So That The Sport Of Rodeo And Agriculture Can Grow Tomorrow.” The TYRA has always understood that education is vital to the American agriculture industry. So an innovative TYRA Executive Committee began to think about encouraging its members to continue their interest in the sport of rodeo and agriculture by pursuing agricultural careers in college. Therefore, the Texas Youth Rodeo Association Scholarship Fund was born. Each year our graduating seniors are awarded scholarships based on their academics, community service and essay. Our scholarships are represented currently by members in 15 colleges and universities throughout Texas. TYRA recognizes that many young people and educators today come from urban backgrounds and have little knowledge of the opportunities available to them in the sport of rodeo and the world of agriculture. Our goal is to promote awareness of such programs. TYRA has a rich tradition and history of stewardship to the community, agriculture industry and youth of Texas. With a clear vision of the future, a successful past and continual dedication from the TYRA and its members the TYRA will continue to be a pillar of strength and support to the youth of Texas. The TYRA is committed to the betterment of the community and furthering the organization’s mission: “Helping Youth Today So That The Sport Of Rodeo and Agriculture Can Grow Tomorrow.” |
