JUNE, 2011 RULE CHANGES:
June 28, 2011
Regions Presidents:
The following are rules that will go in effect as of June 28, 2011.
The INFR has updated the permit rule. Non-member contestants can enter on permits at region and Tour rodeos. The permit is good for just one rodeo. Contestants can purchase a permit as many times as they would like but each time the permit will be $50. The permits will be purchased through the local entries for tour rodeos and have to be paid along with the entry fee prior to entries closing. The INFR retains the $50 permit fee from all rodeos.
At all Tour and Region Rodeos the barrel racing will be raked based on the following. If it is a long and short go rodeo; the rake will be half the number in the short round. So if there are going to be 10 in the short round, the entire rodeo will be raked after every 5 barrel racers. And it is after every 5 on the list whether they compete or not. If it is a one go rodeo, the rake will not be more than after every 7. Again, after 7 whether they run or not. This is a safety precaution for our members and their
animals.
The ground condition at all region and tour rodeos needs to be safe. It will be up to the judges to determine at the beginning of each rodeo if the ground is safe for the barrel racing event. Committees will be fined for unsafe ground in accordance with rule R7.15.1.
If you have any questions, please contact me at the INFR office.
Sincerely,
Donna Hoyt
Per INFR Commission
