CIRCUIT INFORMATION AND RECORDS
The 13 RAM Circuits of the PRCA
1. COLUMBIA RIVER 2. CALIFORNIA 3. WILDERNESS 4. MONTANA 5. MOUNTAIN STATES 6. TURQUOISE 7. BADLANDS 8. PRAIRIE 9. TEXAS 10. GREAT LAKES 11. SOUTHEASTERN 12. FIRST FRONTIER 13. MAPLE LEAF
The circuit system is an integral part of the association. Every PRCA contestant belongs to a circuit and has an opportunity to advance to a national championship in the multimillion-dollar arm of the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association. It affords opportunities to cowboys who may not have the circumstances that allow them to be on the road for thousands of miles a year. But make no mistake, these cowboys are as good as they come. They also make up the majority of the PRCA’s membership. In 1975, the PRCA created a system that breaks up the United States into 12 circuits. The circuits include as few as one state, such as the California, Texas and Montana circuits, to as many as 13 – such as the First Frontier Circuit in the northeastern part of the county. In 1987, the National Circuit Finals Rodeo was incorporated, and Dodge became the title sponsor of all 12 circuit finals rodeos and the Dodge National Circuit Finals Rodeo. In 2010, the Dodge brand rodeo initiative went to the RAM Truck division of the Chrysler Group. RAM still has the title sponsorship of all 12 U.S. PRCA Circuit Finals Rodeos and the National Circuit Finals Rodeo. In 2018, the PRCA expanded the circuit system to 13 by welcoming Canada as the Maple Leaf Circuit. This was in cooperation with the Canadian Professional Rodeo Association. The Maple Leaf Circuit will debut at the 2020 RAM NCFR. As the regular season ends, top competitors from each event qualify to compete at their circuit finals rodeos. Champions from those rodeos, as well as the overall year-end winners from each circuit, are then invited to Kissimmee, Fla., to vie for RAM NCFR championships. Each contestant can compete in and out of his circuit throughout the year, but only the points they earn within the circuit they designate at the beginning of the season are applied in the circuit standings. Nonetheless, everything a contestant wins – in any circuit – is applied in the PRCA| RAMWorld Standings. So, while most circuit contestants rodeo close to home, there is still opportunity for them to earn enough money to get to the Wrangler National Finals Rodeo. The tournament-style RAM NCFR determines the national circuit champions in each event. The competition produces exciting challenges for the athletes and vivid entertainment for the fans. All 26 qualifiers from the 13 circuits compete in the two preliminary rounds of the rodeo. The top eight contestants overall (from each event) advance to the semifinal round, with all previous scores and times thrown out. The top four move on to the final round – a sudden-death competition that determines the national circuit champion in each event. Because the top four contestants begin with a clean slate in the final round, each one has an equal opportunity to claim a RAM NCFR title. In additions to their winnings, RAM NCFR event winners receive a $20,000 voucher for a new RAM vehicle, a Polaris RANGER UTV, a pair of boots from Justin, a trophy saddle from Cactus Saddlery and a Montana Silversmiths buckle. The National Circuit Finals Steer Roping is a similar event that determines the national champion in a separate event, steer roping.
