​

Western Attire:

  • Contestants must wear western attire while competing and in the arena area.

  • Required items: long-sleeve shirt, jeans, western boots, and a cowboy hat or helmet.

  • Hats must remain on until the contestant has completed the run. A 5-second penalty applies if the hat comes off before crossing the arena threshold.

If issued, back numbers must be worn on the back of the contestant’s shirt while competing.

 

Arena Conduct:

  • Be on time for your events; missed calls may result in disqualification.

  • Show courtesy and respect to judges, volunteers, and fellow contestants at all times.

  • Follow all posted ground rules and arena directions.

  • The Main Arena has priority over the Goat Arena at all times. Contestants entered in both areas must compete first in the Main Arena when there is a conflict.
