Behind every back number, every pair of starched jeans, every late-night drive and early morning alarm, there’s a rodeo mom.
She’s in the back for barrel racing,
eyes locked on the chutes for roughstock,
by the stripping chute for team roping,
baby powder in hand for breakaway and tie-down,
holding her breath through goat tying, poles, cutting, cowhorse, light rifle, trap, and every run in between.
She knows the sound of a good run, and the silence after a tough one.
She’s packed the trailers, filled the coolers,
found the missing glove, the lucky shirt,
and somehow always knows where the entry papers are.
She celebrates the wins,
but more importantly,
she’s there after the losses.
She teaches grit in the hard moments,
humility in the good ones, and reminds us that character matters more than buckles.
Rodeo moms are chauffeurs, cooks, photographers, vets, medics, grooms, secretaries, sponsors, and the biggest fans in the crowd — all at once.
They spend countless miles on the road,
weekends at arenas, and long nights getting ready to do it all again.
And through it all,
they build more than rodeo athletes.
They build good humans.
This Mother’s Day, the Alberta High School Rodeo Association celebrates the moms behind the scenes — the ones cheering from the stands, waiting at the gate, and standing beside us every step of the way.
Thank you, Rodeo Moms.
We wouldn’t be here without you. ❤️
