List of Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association Champions
This List of Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association Champions contains champions and awards in the sport of professional rodeo. The Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association (PRCA) is the oldest and largest professional rodeo organization in the United States that sanctions men's events. The PRCA is based in Colorado Springs, Colorado. This article lists all of the major champions from each of the events held yearly at the National Finals Rodeo (NFR), National Finals Steer Roping (NFSR), and National Finals Breakaway Roping (NFBR). Barrel racing and breakaway roping are sanctioned by the Women's Professional Rodeo Association (WPRA). It also lists the all-around champion, awarded to the competitor who wins the most prize money in a year competing in at least two events. The bucking livestock from the three roughstock events are also awarded championships titled stock of the year. Also listed are the winners of various awards given during the NFR, such as the timed-event awards for AQHA/PRCA Horse of the Year and the Top NFR Bucking Stock. The PRCA also runs the ProRodeo Hall of Fame which inducts new members annually.
