Permit Information
A cowboy who wishes to become a member of the PRCA must first apply for a permit. The PRCA entry fees for permit application costs $300. Anyone of legal age can enter to become a permit holder and gain access to many of the contests. The legal age is based on the state in which the cowboy lives. If the age of majority is over 18, then that legal age is applied to the applicant.
Member Information
After becoming a permit member, cowboys must earn at least $1,000 during rodeos sanctioned by PRCA before they can become a card holder. There’s no time limit to fill the permit with money earned from PRCA sanctioned rodeos. While money earned under a permit will count towards circuit standings, they do not apply to world standings.
PRCA entry fees must be paid at least three days before the new year begins on January 1st, or the cowboy will not be able to participate in events scheduled around that time. Applicants can pay by check if they are applying for a permit. Members can call in a payment to the PRCA offices too.
Any money paid to the cowboy will be paid through RodeoPay. The member will also be able to participate in the insurance for cowboys in case of injury too. Any interested applicants can visit PRCA ProRodeo for more information on contests and fees for entry in the individual rodeo events.
