Proper Preparation Prevents Panic and Lost Points

There is no way in which you can predict every question that will ever be asked of you at a rodeo queen pageant.  However, with proper preparation you can prevent panic and anxiety.  Study sessions do not need to be marathon sessions.  You can do anything for 15-minutes a day, this includes:
  • Reading the rulebook of the association sanctioning the rodeo you are preparing to represent.
  • Listening to the news on the radio instead of music.
  • Reading articles in a horse related magazine (Our favorites are Equus, Western Horseman and Horse and Rider.)
  • Reading a chapter in an equine science book.
  • Watching a video on rodeo, horsemanship or a related topic
  • Taking an online equine science or horsemanship course.
  • Looking at the current standings of the association sanctioning the rodeo.

When studying for your pageant you should focus on specifics of the association and pageant system associated with the pageant.
  • Pageants affiliated with a PRCA rodeo and/or state qualifying pageants for Miss Rodeo America should focus on PRCA history, rules, current standings and trivia along with former Miss Rodeo America's, the pageant's history and the young women who held the title before you. Contestants should also be familiar with the history, rules, current standings and trivia associated with the WPRA.
  • Pageants affiliated with an IPRA rodeo and for those preparing for the Miss Rodeo USA pageant should focus on the history, rules, current standings and trivia of the IPRA along with Miss Rodeo USA pageant materials and history.
  • Contestants running for a state high school rodeo title should know all about the NHSRA,
.
The questions (over 150) found in the printable file below should be tailored to the association that sanctions the rodeo which is hosting the rodeo ambassador pageant you are competing. The possibilities are endless when it comes to questions about rodeo and equine science.  Just like eating an elephant, the best way to become knowledgeable about rodeo and equine science is one bite at a time.
