Our Services

In 2022, the Team attended 183 performances

The Team consists of over 50 practitioners in many disciplines

The Team strives to help athletes in their rodeo careers by providing pre-event care and treatment, acute injury arena coverage, crisis control, and post-event care and follow up. The Team educates and enables competitors to better care for themselves and their injuries, to ensure they get the most out of their lives and rodeo careers. By providing this care, we have seen a reduction in the number of ‘turn-outs’ by increasing healthy competitors. In 2019 the Team attended 175 performances in Canada including Canadian Pro Rodeo Association rodeos, Professional Bull Riders events, and the Calgary Stampede Rodeo and Chuckwagons.

The Team consists of over 50 practitioners in the disciplines of athletic therapy, chiropractic care, and massage therapy that provide on-site attention to rodeo athletes. The CPRSMT also includes a curated network of physicians, sport medicine physicians and orthopaedic surgeons providing post injury care to rodeo competitors.

how do we do it?

We Are a not-for-profit

The practitioners are paid a stipend for the rodeos/events they attend and all travel costs are covered. Additional team expenses include medical supplies and equipment, our trucks and mobile treatment trailers, and team administrative costs. The team is not a financially self-sustaining organization and relies on contributions from the Canadian Professional Rodeo Association, its members, rodeo committees, private donors, and corporate partners.
