HOYRA was founded by a group of dedicated parents as a non-profit organization in 2002/2003 Season.

It is incorporated and has a 501 C3 non-profit status.

Over the years the goal of the association has remained the same. HOYRA wants to provide the highest standard of sportsmanship in the competitive events of rodeo, to keep alive the American Western Heritage, and to teach the importance of humane and ethical treatment of animals. We strive to teach our children the foundation of good horsemanship and to raise

them in an environment that shapes character, promotes model citizens, and provides skills that will

ultimately lead to future world champions and leaders.

HOYRA is open to all young people 19 years of age and under. With four (4) different age groups, HOYRA offers Barrels, Poles, Goat Tying, Breakaway Roping, Ribbon Roping, Tie-Down Calf Roping, Steer Stopping, Steer Breakaway and Team Roping.

To provide a truly Family Association, HOYRA offers open events as well for parents and other adults.

Each year our goal is to provide each qualified member with a jacket, first time member trophy buckle and a prize for each event in which they qualify. Since the organization began, HOYRA has given away a minimum of 31 saddles each year in various youth events and has paid out millions of dollars in cash and prizes to contestants. It has over 200 members this season ranging in location from the entire state of Oklahoma, Texas, Missouri, Mississippi, Arkansas & Kansas.

As a non-profit organization, officers and board member positions are strictly voluntary.

All labor required to set up and run a rodeo performance is provided by the parents, family and friends of the contestants.

A paid Stock Contractor, Judges and Secretary are expenses plus building cost. An annual membership fee and a minimal office charge are withheld from each contestant's entry fee to pay for rodeo supplies and to cover these cost.

All profit and fundraisers apply toward year-end awards and prizes.

This association depends greatly on the assistance of corporations, businesses and individuals who are gracious enough to donate cash, prizes and most importantly their time. Ask us today how you can become part of the HOYRA Sponsor Family.
