Contrary to what some people may believe, the sport of rodeo is not just for the young, but also the young at heart. For any cowboy or cowgirl who finds themselves age 40 or older, the National Senior Pro Rodeo Association, also known as the NSPRA, offers the chance to continue competing on the big stage. Whether it’s calf roping, steer wrestling, bareback riding, or barrel racing, any senior cowboy or cowgirl who still has the passion for the sport can find themselves hearing the cheers of the crowd as they vie for a championship.
