The Women’s Professional Rodeo Association’s NFR Saddle Rotation Program is truly one of the most innovative awards program in professional rodeo. Established in 1998, the NFR Saddle Program was created as a means to celebrate WPRA’s 50^th anniversary. The program proved so popular and successful it has continued uninterrupted in each successive year.

The concept of the NFR Saddle Program is to award a trophy saddle to each of the top 15 NFR barrel racing contestants. The saddles are donated to the program by the nation’s top saddle makers and their endorsees. Each year the saddles are on display at the WPRA booth at Cowboy Christmas in the Las Vegas Convention Center during the NFR. In addition to the top 15 qualifiers, a saddle is also donated for Reserve World Champion.

The WPRA and the top 15 barrel racers truly appreciate all the support that the following great saddle donors give to the NFR Saddle Rotation Program and the sport of rodeo.
