2026-2027 MSLBRA Rodeo Schedule

How to enter:

2026-2027 RODEO ENTRIES!

If you have not created a HORSESPOT username or password, you will need to do that first. You will enter each rodeo separately. (So, you will complete this process twice if you are entering both Saturday and Sunday’s rodeo.) Simply search MSLBRA under ‘find your shows’ on Horsespot to enter.

Pay close attention to divisions. The system shows all events, not just the events you are eligible for.

***Payments***   You will be asked to store a credit card in the HorseSpot system. You will NOT be charged at checkout and the total shown does not include the processing fee.  Once your entries are verified and  accepted you will receive an email confirmation. The confirmation will NOT list what you entered in. If you need to check your entries, you can see them on your HorseSpot account under ‘my shows.’

Your card on file will be CHARGED ON THE PAYMENT DEADLINE (the Friday, one week before the rodeo).  You will receive an email receipt when the card on file is charged. This receipt will display your fee breakdown and include the system processing fee.  If payment is not received by the 9pm deadline, it will be a $30 late fee per contestant, per rodeo.

Not a current NLBRA member? You can still enter! Simply text your entries to 601-507-7246. There is a $25 non-member fee per rodeo. This fee goes directly to the National Office to cover your insurance for that rodeo.
