Welcome to the official site of the
Mid-States Rodeo Association (MSRA).

The MSRA is based in Michigan and sanctions rodeos throughout the Midwest states including Kentucky, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania and West Virginia. Our members compete in the seven standard rodeo events: Saddle Bronc Riding, Bareback Bronc Riding, Bull Riding, Tie Down Roping, Team Roping, Ladies Barrel Racing, Steer Wrestling as well as Ladies Breakaway Roping.

The MSRA is proud to promote professional rodeo as a sport; to strive at all times to insure honesty and fairness to both the contestant and producer; to create an amicable relationship among stock contractors and to inspect, sanction and advertise rodeos being sponsored in accordance with association standards.

Greetings all,

 Welcome to all the new members that have joined the MSRA this year. Please take the time to read the rule book and familiarize yourself with the rules for your event. The rule book is posted on the website.   The MSRA office has been very busy issuing cards and getting all of the sanction papers sent out. There are 51 rodeos on our schedule, 26 of these rodeos are MSRA first approved and a couple more pending.  The office is working closely with the stock contractors, IPRA and CES to make this a great season by offering the rodeo contestant as much information possible to make things easier.

  Please check out our new line of apparel on Facebook and get your orders in. There is still room for sponsor logos on the back of our shirts for $100 per business. All money goes to help our MSFR in October. This is a great way to promote our association and to help our great sponsors advertise their business. Also, see our new line of ball caps that have been posted on our Facebook page. For ordering merchandise please follow and like us on Facebook @ Mid States Rodeo Association and see our post, or simply email or call the MSRA office for more info.

  All rule proposals need to be in the MSRA office by July 1st in order to be on the agenda at the General Membership meeting. The meeting will be held at the MSFR @ WB Ranch in Swanton Ohio. Please stay tuned for more information coming in the near future about our Finals.

  If you or any business that you know are interested in sponsoring the MSFR this year please call or email to discuss the options that we offer. I am looking forward to seeing everyone at the Rodeos this year and if you have any questions or need help with anything please call or email me. 419-466-1362 president@midstatesrodeo.com

 Safe travels & see you soon,

 Steve Shattuck
