Rodeo Team Information

Q: Do you have to be part of the club to be on the team?

A: Yes, but it's for your own benefit. Decisions concerning the team are made during meetings.

 

Q: How many rodeos are there per year?

A: There are usually 4 rodeos in the fall and 6 in the spring.

 

Q: Are members compensated for entry fees or driving?

A: Members of the team do have the opportunity to be compensated for driving costs if they use an Iowa State University vehicle. There is also a scholarship available to one female and one male participant each year.

 

Q: Are there places in the area to keep my horse?

A: There are some stables in the area that can be found on the animal science Web site. You can also e-mail rodeoteam@iastate.edu for more information.

 

Q: Are there team practices?

A: The arena is always there for team members to practice and we are looking into getting our own cattle for roping and steer wrestling practices. For rough stock, members have been able to visit Ft. Dodge to practice with the ICCC rodeo members.

 

Q: Are members required to own their own equipment?

A: For the most part, yes. The equipment we have available includes a few protective vests for the competitors.

 

Q: Who can I contact for more team information?

A: Please contact Heidi Gansen at hgansen@iastate.edu, or

our advisor Dr. Scott McClure at mcclures@iastate.edu.
