The exclusive bull riding event provides fans with the chance to watch top athletes from across the country exhibit their skills and endurance. But additionally, the unique competition welcomes up-and-coming riders to participate and begin accruing points. Previously, minor league competitors were limited to the number of available events and the option to accumulate points, which included participation in the Touring Pro Division.

The points awarded are similar to the Professional Bull Riders Touring Pro Division. The events also serve as part of the qualification requirements for the Built Ford Tough Series, as points won may then be applied to the series.

At the end of the event, the rider scoring the highest number of points is deemed the champion.
