“The Canadian Cowboys Association is working very diligently with Saskatchewan Health to ensure that the Rodeo Season can begin and move forward in a safe environment for the contestants and spectators alike. With a season being possible and the first rodeos set for June, we are excited for the planning process to begin for the finals. The Event Finals will Showcase the top notch cowboys, cowgirls, rough stock and equine athletes around.” said Robin Poirier, President of the Canadian Cowboys Association.

Due to Covid guidelines and regulations the event finals details continue to be developed. Information regarding ticket sales will be available in the near future.
