AUSTIN, TEXAS– The World Champions Rodeo Alliance (WCRA) is excited to announce the WCRA Triple Crown of Rodeo (TCR), an award that will pay a $1,000,000 bonus to any one or collection of athletes whom win first in any three consecutive WCRA one-day $1,000,000 Major Rodeos.
This $1,000,000 award will be available to all athletes who nominate their current rodeo efforts through the WCRA Virtual Rodeo Qualifier (VRQ) and are crowned champions at three consecutive WCRA Major Rodeos. The 2020 schedule includes three major rodeos where athletes can qualify for the $1,000,000 bonus, beginning in Kansas City, Missouri for the Royal City Roundup on February 28, followed by a late-May early-June soon to be announced location. The 2020 tour will wrap-up in Tacoma, Washington on August 28 with the Puget Sound Showdown. All majors will follow a semi-finals event.
“This chance to win a $1,000,000 bonus is unlike anything else anyone is doing in the rodeo industry,” said WCRA President Bobby Mote. “We are making a very large positive footprint on the sport of rodeo and will continue to give rodeo athletes more and more opportunities similar to this.”
All athletes from around the globe have the opportunity to compete in the WCRA Major Events Series and compete for the TCR after qualifying through the WCRA Virtual Rodeo Qualifier (VRQ). All rodeo athletes interested in learning more about the VRQ should be directed to wcrarodeo.com while those inquiring more about the TCR may visit triplecrownofrodeo.com.
