It's a solid line up of some very respected cowboys/cowgirls. I hope works out to be something great for them. I'd bet they reach an agreement with the PRCA in 2016 and we see them next year at PRCA events as well. |

| How many open rodeos have $5,000+ added? So to become their group B, you have to go to PRCA/WPRA rodeos. Looks like they are piggy backing off of the PRCA/WPRA still. I suppose youth could do IFYR, NLBRA and HSRA. But those are the only ones for youth that fit the criteria of money and events. |

LOL The top ones in every event are in there. Trevor Brazile, Cody Ohl, and Tuf Cooper in the Tie Down Roping, Kaycee Fields in bareback bronc, Jesse and Spencer Wright in saddle bronc (surprised the third Wright boy isn't on there, but oh well), then of course Sherry Cervi, Taylor Jacobs, Fallon Taylor, Lisa Lockhart, and really most all of the barrel racers.
Those are some of the best in their events, no one beats Trevor for sure - his 21 world championships prove it. I know all the people I care to watch are in there. |

Actually, isn't this just a qualification for TWO more contestants to be added to the original roster and will compete in the 2016 Finals......the qualifications for 2017 (and beyond) have not been announced yet.....They may very well have qualifying events set up by that time. |

2016 finals set up the 2017 roster of 7 contestants. They haven't said who the other 3 spots are held for because they are kicking off the bottom 3 of 2016. |

I didn't read this part but a comment was made that somewhere it stated the founding members can not be kicked off if they are in the bottom 3? Like Trevor and CJ. Not sure if it's correct or not but I wouldn't be surprised if it is the case. |

| They are answering questions about it all on their Facebook page. Bobby Mote posted that even people like himself of Charmayne can be kicked off if not performing well. Their Facebook page is public. You do not need to have Facebook to read it. There is a lot of interesting info on there. Read the Facebook page. Lots of questions asked, questions answered, and good points made. A qualifier rodeo must have all events, $5,000 added in each event and a minimum of 36 contestants in each event. Seems like it would have been more logical to create their own qualifiers instead of using the very associations they think aren't promoting and supporting contestants as they should. I hope it all works for everyone, because I love rodeo. One thing about it....... they have a lot of people's attention and have people talking about it. The American rodeo has their 10 contestants based off of other associations with qualifiers to fill the other spots, but those associations are in on the whole concept willingly. The ERA's top roster is selected and qualifiers based on performance with other associations who are not necesserily in on it willingly.

| On the 36 thing....I'm not reading it that they expect 36 contestants per event. I'm reading it as the rodeos can't set limits that make it where they accept less than 36 contestants. I do feel the ERA seems to be making this up as they go along. |

Location: WI | How would a youth be able to qualify based on this system? With Chayni up there, I would have thought the qualifying system would have been geared a little differently to allow youth to attempt to qualify. But where is there any rodeos that isn't 18 and over, has $5000 added, and has all the events? Not just for barrel racing, but for all events. |

They can't. The only youth rodeos that might meet the criteria are the IFYR, Little Britches Finals and HS or JHS Rodeo Finals. The format the ERA came up with will exclude youth competitors from being able to qualify. |

But Little Britches finals, and High School Nationals do not have 5000.00 added. So that still doesnt let them qualify!! |

Location: The edge of no where | Hey - not sure if ya'll noticed, but this is marked up as the qualification tour for 2016. Doesn't mean that it won't change for 2017. Last month everyone was ****y that the first year the field was set for the finals - they add a few contestants and people are still ****y about how they have to qualify. Could we not wait for the 2017 tour qualification requirements to come out before deciding they're so unfair? |

That part means you can't go to a small rodeo that does have the 5k added and they only get 15 contestants in your event. Makes it too easy to qualify for ERA so they say your rodeo has to have at least 36 in your event to make it a qualified rodeo to make your money count for ERA. |

– The rodeo may not have limits less than 36 entries per discipline.
THAT means that you can NOT count a rodeo that LIMITS the entries to less than 36 PER EVENT......... EXAMPLE: If a rodeo only takes 30 contestants per event, you can NOT count it.....
eta: Some rodeos limit the number of team ropers, etc

It seems like they think these two will bring in a lot of money considering some of the expenses involved in running this deal and putting on the rodeos? Where does stock contractor fees, facility costs, insurance etc. as well as splitting the money across all of the owners/shareholders factor in? |

Didn't know that. Fox Sports One is only a couple of years old. It was started to compete with ESPN. They are in need of sports programming to fill a 24 channel. I'm just real curious as to how much they paid for this considering how little interest there was in the NFR tv rights. |

| So if I understand right. The rodeos...have to have 36 contestents...easy enough. AAAAnd YOUR event has to have $5k added....I am going to go see how many rodeo associations other than the PRCA added that much money to the barrels. I was really excited about the qualifications system being released....and the ERA for that matter. The more options the better. But I have to say that this guy said it best.

Well I gathered that they would allow you to use PRCA rodeos. Is that not the case? I don't know of many other associations that will have added money of 5k plus. |

Well that pretty much assures that that it will be the same people having a chance to qualify. Just about any PRCA rodeo will qualify, even San Antonio. I think their limits are 40. |

| Why don't they form their own Association and provide their OWN qualifiers and QUIT piggy back riding on an association that is not elite enough.

Oh Boy... I see many ticked off qualifiers in the near future... I feel like they can change the rules or qualifications at any time. Definitley an unstable Organization at this point....
I think qualifiers, such as myself, are more upset at the fact that they made this Organization out to be all about bettering Rodeo and giving people a chance at more money with less travel. And well it does, for those hand picked on the roster but not those trying to qualify. We will have to go just as hard to try to unseat their chosen few as it stands right now, which is not bettering Rodeo IMO. |

Location: Oklahoma | The UPRA Membership rodeos last year would qualify with the exception of the rough stock.
There are a few IPRA rodeos that qualify on added money and participation in the timed events.

I'm reading it as the rodeos can't set limits that make it where they accept less than 36 contestants. I do feel the ERA seems to be making this up as they go along. That part means you can't go to a small rodeo that does have the 5k added and they only get 15 contestants in your event. Makes it too easy to qualify for ERA so they say your rodeo has to have at least 36 in your event to make it a qualified rodeo to make your money count for ERA.
eta: Some rodeos limit the number of team ropers, etc
Oh please. No one would have said a dsmn thing if NJJ wouldn't have started her post with "Do you people READ????" It was an uncalled for statement. Just because everyone bows down to her on you alls secret little Fallout Shelter bash group doesn't mean the same treatment will be given on BHW.

Right, Sam.......
I will readily admit that my statement "do you people read" was a little rude (Does that make you do the "happy dance", Stacey?) But after days of reading all these rumors and mis-information being bandied about and repeated because many don't take the time to ACTUALLY READ the rules, must have flipped my switch.....LOL |

Yes it was pointed out on the first page of the thread. Just a mistake of scanning bright and early this morning before work. Sorry to cause such an uproar. |

At first I read it as 36 contestants pet event too. But that sounded just stupid because of the bull riding so I looked at it closer. A lot of people are making the same mistake. They don't have it worded very well. |

But those are limited entry rodeos. You have to be Indian.
Could they sanction, and still limit to a certain race? |

That is an interesting question....they certainly didn't specify gender or race criteria.....so Indian, All-Black, Gay/Lesbian or All Girl Rodeos could count???? |

The gay rodeos are open, the Indian rodeos are truly exclusive. You have to be a member of a recognized tribe. |

Mescalero has generally been just an open rodeo - I've NEVER heard it referred to as an Indian rodeo. I think they did get the PRCA to sanction it a couple of time, but it's usually just an open rodeo - just like Capitan. It's not part of any association - it just happens to be on the reservation. |

Not true--some of them won't let non-minority contestants enter, the Bill Picket rodeos being the one that comes to mind.
The RCA (Real Cowboys Association) are open to all, and they are a BLAST!

oh ok, I went this year to both Capitan and Mescalero. I just called it an Indian rodeo because it was on the reservation...but you are right...hmm...I havent ever been to any black rodeos or gay rodeos. I heard they are open though....I dont know where they are or I would definitely take a horse and season at them. |

| NJJ, you just opened another can of worms. Someone could have a "Smith" family reunion rodeo and only allow family to enter. LOL. I just think this new organization is either very poorly thought out, as if they really don't have a plan, or they did a hell of a job of getting the state of Texas to give them a huge amount of money that they are carefully putting in their own pockets. Several years ago some of the top tier people in the PRCA tried to get a new tour system in place that would practically guarantee the same people go to the NFR year after year. IMO, this new organization is set up to do just that. |

I think most are open. Some of the gay rodeos might require a membership card, but you don't have to be gay to join in many of them. Actually I knew a board member of IGRA and she was a straight, married lady. Straight people would also compete at their rodeo some years.
Most of the "black" rodeos up in my area are all open. Some are invite only but they invite white and black people to go, so it's not race specific. |

Most local "invite only" are still pretty much open, if you hear about it, call and ask to get invited. LOL
What about something like Mike & SherryLynn's deal in December? They add enough and get enough players, but it's only Calf Roping and Barrels. Also what about the Bulls and barrels deals.
** I am pretty sure Bill Pickets are the only ones that are exclusively Black rodeos. I have been able to enter every one we have stopped at but those.

If the rules that were printed in this forum are the exact set of tules (without going to the ERA site to look), they say nothing about being limited to who can enter, only that they have to except 36 entries. If that is the case, then the INFR circuit rodeos that have $5000 added should count. And there have been Indian rodeos with $10K added per event. Time will tell how well it was all thought out, if there are any loopholes, if rules change as they go, or if anything goes! |
