About Us
 
AVYRA has 8 rodeos from February to September and a two day Finals Rodeo in October.  See below for eligibility.
 
Day Awards:
At each of the 8 rodeo's, AVYRA awards Trophies to First Place and Ribbons to Second thru Fifth Place to all Little Britches and PeeWee Division contestants.  In addition, AVYRA awards cash payouts to the Junior and Senior Divisions.  The number of payouts is dependent upon the number of entries per event.  For payout amount, see payout schedule under the Yearend Standings tab.
 
At the Finals, AVYRA will present awards to the average winners in each event for the two days for each Division.  Number of places will depend upon available funds.  No cash payouts will be awarded at the finals.
 
Yearend Awards:
Yearend awards are based on total points for all rodeos including the finals in each event.  All around points are a total of contestant points for every event at all rodeos.
 
At each of the 8 rodeos, points are awarded to first thru tenth place in each event.  See points chart in Yearend Standing tab.
 
At the Finals, points are awarded to first thru tenth place in each event for each day.  In addition, another set of points are awarded to first thru tenth place in the average for the weekend in each event.  Average is based on times, not placings.
 
At the Banquet in January, AVYRA will present awards to first thru tenth place for each event and first place to the all around winners in each division.  Also, being a family oriented association, every child that is eligible for yearend awards will be called up on stage and awarded for being a participate even if they are not in the top ten in one of their events.
