PRCA Business Journal - Sept. 29, 2023

may only compete at the Maple Leaf Circuit Finals if it is their designated circuit within the PRCA/WPRA. MLCF money won will count for 2024 Canadian and World standings. 4 go-rounds and an average will be paid Turn out/Alternate Procedure: Contestants who were eligible at time of entry will be added to an alternate list. 30 Hour Replacement: A DR, VIR, or a notified TO can be replaced by an alternate as long as the notification is made through CRES at least 30 hours prior to the scheduled performance in which the contestant is being replaced. Notifications made after the “30-hour” deadline will not be replaced and notifications on record with CRES at the 30 hour deadline will be final. Replacements must be made prior to the first go round of competition. If stock has already been drawn in the riding events, the judges will draw an animal for the alternate contestant, after the TO deadline for that performance, from a pool consisting of the animal drawn by the contestant that he is replacing, any other turned out animals (which includes NTO’s, DR’s, and VIR’s), and the first designated re ride for that performance that is still available. If stock has not yet been drawn, the contestant will be drawn an animal by CRES during the scheduled stock draw time. Animals that are turned out (includes NTO’s, DR’s, and VIR’s) will not be included in the re-ride draw until after the TO deadline (3 hours prior to the performance) and replacements for that performance have been made, to ensure that there are the same number of animals and contestants for that performance. If not enough contestants to fill contestant list have competed at their required rodeos, the CPRA will roll back to the top of the standings and fill in members with the highest ranked contestant without rodeo count. (Money will not count to PRCA world standings or be eligible for NFR open position without rodeo count). * If a contestant notifies a turn-out, DR or visible release and is replaced by an alternate, the alternate contestant will be responsible for the entry fees. If the contestant that notified the turnout or visible release is not replaced by an alternate, they will be responsible for the entry fee. If a contestant properly doctor releases they will not be responsible for entry fees. PAYOUT: Top 4 in each round. Top 4 in aggregate. STK.
