Their mission is to offer kids in grades 6 through 12 a chance to be competitive student athletes at the highest level of competition in their region, across Arizona and on a national level for championships and thousands of dollars in scholarships. They also encourage students to continue in school and to improve their scholastic achievement through the high standards it holds for its members as students in the classroom and sportsmen in the arena.
Junior High School Members compete in goat tying, tie-down and breakaway calf roping, barrel racing, pole bending, chute doggin, team roping and ribbon roping. High School members compete in pole bending, barrel racing, breakaway, tie down roping, team roping, goat tying, bareback riding, saddle bronc, bull riding, steer wrestling, cutting and shooting events. The cowboys, cowgirls and the animals used in the rodeo compete against themselves and the clock, as much as they compete against each other.
