just plain good-old All-American fun through the spirit of friendly
competition. The NJRA is based in the Puget Sound area of western Washington

The NJRA has requested that it
be posted at each of the NJRA Sanctioned Junior Rodeos that 'Fat Boy'
or similar boots with a 'heavy tread' or that are extra wide not be
worn. This has become a safety issue, especially with goat tying
or in the case that you fall off your horse or you and your horse fall
that you might become 'stuck' in the stirrup. If you have these
boots for riding, it is strongly recommended that you wear another
type of western boot with a smooth sole and heel during competition. |
