Classifications, how does Pro vs. Challenger work?
In an effort to create more opportunities for all women rodeo athletes, the Women’s Rodeo World Championship (WRWC) has launched a tiering system based on earnings and rankings in the respective disciplines at the WRWC. This tiering system will level the playing field by dividing the pro and challenger athletes into their respective pools in the 2022 WRWC qualifying rounds and give each group a direct path to compete at center stage.
Why should I compete in the Women’s Rodeo World Championship?
The world championship event is open to any biological female athlete over the age of 13 years old competing in breakaway roping, barrel racing, and/or team roping. The WRWC is a culmination of a year-long race of women’s rodeo events held worldwide. Athletes qualify for the WRWC by earning points and leaderboard positions using the VRQ (Virtual Rodeo Qualifier) or through select Qualifier Series events.
