- Rule # 1.3.4.1.1 says- membership dues
must be received in the WPRA National Office no later
than three (3) business days prior to the entry opening
time of a given rodeo to allow time for processing. (Indicated
as “member dues date” in the official publication).
This means- the WPRA office must
have officially received, processed and changed your
status to active a full 3 business days prior to the
entry opening date.
Tip- If you wait until the
last minute (such as the actual dues date) you run the
risk that the WPRA office did not actually receive your
application or could not process it. Plan ahead and
don't wait until the last minute.

- Reference Rules # 10.7.1, Release Quick
Facts- for PRCA Rodeos
A change was made to the release
rule for 2010.
This particular rule change will
go into effect as of November 1, 2009 so you have time
to be aware of it.
1. You must notify Procom no later
than three 3 hours prior to the performance in which
you are up. (If releasing out of slack, notification
must be 3 hours before the prior night's performance.
If no prior night performance, it must be before 5:00PM
MT of the prior day.)
2. You are allowed 2 releases per rodeo year. A release
may cover several rodeos and the cost is $15.00 per
rodeo.
3. When a contestant releases they are not eligible
to compete for 7 FULL days, beginning with the first
performance the release is used. You may continue to
enter events that have entry closings during this time.
NOTE: It is your responsibility to notify Procom of
the rodeos already entered in order to be released.
4. When you release out of a rodeo it is for the whole
rodeo. Example: if release is used for the first competition
scheduled for the 5th of the month, the first day you
will be eligible to compete will be the 12th of the
month.
5. If try to compete in less than 7 days, it is a major
rule violation.
6. If you use more than 2 releases in a rodeo year is
a major rule violation.
7. You must send a release statement to the WPRA Office
within 7 business days from the performance you are
releasing. If the WPRA Office does not receive your
statement in that time period, you will be assessed
a $25 fine.
8. Release statements must include name, card #, rodeo(s)
you're releasing from and their dates.
