Membership Info

before you buy your membership...

Be sure you understand what is involved in being a member of high school rodeo. This is especially important for new members or anyone who is new to rodeo.

RAFFLE

We encourage every AHSRA member to sell one book of tickets (Total value $500) for our Truck and Trailer raffle. Raffle proceeds are extremely important to the continued operations of AHSRA – funds are used towards scholarship payouts to graduates, and to help put on our provincial finals. 

 

Each district has a volunteer ticket coordinator, who works with the Provincial Raffle Coordinator, Terrie Barkshire to distribute and track raffle tickets. 

 

Failure to hand in your raffle tickets by April 1st will result in disqualification from the Provincial Finals. See more details on our Raffle page.

ATTIRE & back numbers

Full Western attire is mandatory and must be worn one hour prior to rodeo time until one hour after the rodeo has ended

This includes a western hat, long sleeved shirt (must be tucked in, wrist length sleeved shirt, with collar and cuffs – no sweatshirts, T-shirts or pullover sweaters allowed), western boots, and western trousers at all times during a performance. This includes, all competition arenas, chute areas, stock working areas, any contestant in any seating area, whether competing or not. 

Shirt sleeves must be rolled down. The only exception to this rule will be in bareback riding and bull riding; a rider may roll up sleeves as necessary to eliminate either a hang up or to accommodate necessary wrapping and/or support for the elbow. After competition, contestant must adhere to attire rules. 

Back numbers must also be worn at all times while you are in the community where the current rodeo is being held. 

You may make photocopies of your back number and laminate them. Members are encouraged to have several back numbers, one for each jacket. The NHSRA issued back number is the number you should wear in the arena. See our Rules page for more details.

RODEO SCHEDULE AND ENTRIES

Your district rodeo schedule is posted on your district page. You can also check the calendar, which shows online entry dates, call in entry dates.

All entries can be done online through the EQuest Event system. If you miss online entries, or need to make a change to your online entry, you must do that by phone on call in night. See more details on our Entries Information page.

Members are required to have parental consent to participate in each rodeo. This form must be handed in at each rodeo, and must be signed by a parent. 

Members are also required to hand in a Principal’s Signature Form (Or Homeschool Form) twice per year – once at the beginning of the fall and again before the spring season. 

Report cards must be uploaded by February 1st to remain in good standing.

If you have not received your member welcome email, you will not be able to enter rodeos in EQuest. You can check your membership account - the status needs to be "Submitted" in order to enter rodeos. 
- A few people have mistakenly uploaded their membership documents to the EQuest entry system, but they need to be uploaded to the NHSRA Membership system - the same place you purchased the membership. If you are waiting for your membership welcome email, and are sure you have uploaded your documents, please double check and make sure you have put them in the correct system. 
- Team event entries - EQuest has added a new feature that shows any partners who have NOT entered in RED. If your partner is showing RED, you may want to follow up and make sure they enter. 
- When you are entering a rodeo, the first screen may have only shooting, cutting or reined cow horse events - just click NEXT and you will see the next days and all the other rodeo events. The optional events always show on the first page, you can just move past them if you are not entering them. 

Any D2 members wanting to enter Stettler must have their membership processed by Tuesday (tomorrow) at 7 pm. Do not leave it until the last minute! If you are unsure and want to double check, please contact Pam at the office at 780-305-9640 or ahsraoffice@gmail.com.
