National Little Britches Rodeo Association board of director announces contestant selection for the 2024 Junior Ironman.

Senior boys ages 14-19 battled it out in over 500 sanctioned NLBRA rodeos nationwide. The race came to a close at the 2023 Little Britches finals July 2-8th at the Lazy E. After a tough season of competition, the five NLBRA constituents for the 2024 Junior Ironman were reviewed and recommended by the committee and approved by the full board. The young men were chosen on the merits of points accrued in their events, the level of competition and location during the season. These five young cowboy and five more chosen via a selection process through the Lazy E will have their chance at glory and compete at the 8^th annual Jr. Ironman Championship, a building ground for young guns who aspire to one day compete at the Timed Event Championships.

Congratulations to:

These 5 contestants will compete in three performances consisting of Heading, Heeling, Tie Down Roping and Steer Wrestling. This will determine the next champion and winner of the $10,000 in prize money. New to the event year is no limitations on who can be the helper; dad, high school partner, or even a pro may assist these youth competitors.
