The West Texas Ranch Rodeo is proud to announce our 1styear featuring the Women of the WBRC. Each performance of the West Texas Ranch Rodeo will showcase six of these talented women bronc riders from the WBRC. This is an event within an event that you won’t want to miss. They use a working ranch saddle just like WRCA. Be there to see these amazing riders show their skills.
Women have been a part of bronc riding since the late 1800's, competing in early rodeos and proving their skill alongside the men. Legends like Fanny Sperry Steele, Lucille Mulhall, and Bonnie McCarroll set records, rode the rankest horses, and helped shape the sport. Though women's events faded, the spirit and determination of those early riders never disappeared.
The WRBC exists to help female athletes of all ages and backgrounds pursue and achieve their ranch bronc riding goals. This commitment drives the internationally recognized Trail to Cheyenne Tour, a growing global stage that celebrates rising talent and honors the history of the sport.
The WRBC has been a crowd favorite at some of the largest rodeo stages in the world. Cheyenne Frontier Days, Steamboat Springs Pro Rodeo, Calgary Stampede, and now the West Texas Ranch Rodeo.
These ladies come from all over the world! The WBRC brings the best in Cowgirl Bronc Riding Action. Tup Forge (right) from Australia is the 2025 Women's Ranch Bronc Champion, winning the prestigious title at Cheyenne Frontier Days in July 2025. She is the first Australian woman to win the world championship.
