Proud and honored to be a part of the thriving Rodeo Community within Tasmania ๐
Can you believe our total prize pool for our nine Tasmanian Rodeos totalled a staggering $160,963 for the 2024/2025 professional Rodeo season!
This incorporates $113,950 in prizemoney put up by our hard-working Rodeo Committees and our amazing, generous sponsors, plus $47,013 add back from entry fees!
Itโs fair to say Rodeo is not an event for the faint hearted, and it can be expensive, but when you can take a portion of this type of prize pool home from local Tasmanian competition it puts a shine on your running costs.
We wouldnโt be able to put this post up without making special mention to a team of hard-working individuals who have played a significant role in this success.
ID Rodeo Promotions Tasmania have held 7 of the 9 Rodeos throughout Tasmania this season injecting a total of $116,643 into the stateโs Rodeo economy. $83,300 in prize money plus $33,343 add back from entry fees, a magnificent feat.
Please join us in congratulating and thanking them, as well as our other Rodeo Committees, Gowrie Park Rodeo and Ulverstone Rodeo Committee for creating these opportunities for competitors as well as providing local communities with rural entertainment and supporting local charity organisations.
Donโt forget, a load of work goes on behind the scenes in running these events. If you havenโt yet volunteered to jump on board and help a committee out, then now is probably the time to give it a go.
If you would like to become involved in the wonderful world of Rodeo, we will be looking at holding some more introduction days around September, October and November prior to the start of our season. Please reach out to the Island Rodeo Circuit direct and we will add your name to our list of enthusiastic persons to be notified direct.
