I would say he has already done it without anyones permission. A young person could be doing a lot worse at that age then riding a bull.

My 2 grandsons started riding about that same age. They rode all through high school when ever there was an event near home. We dont have a high school rodeo program though. It was all on their own,
They both qualified to ride in the jr. finals rodeo in Vegas. Which they did ride there. and I might add, yes they did both break some bones during their riding.

It happens a lot more than people realize. Mom and dad say no and won't sign permission slips required for any legitimate competition, training clinic, or even a back yard prsctice pen.

So the kid behaves until one of his buddies calls or texts saying hey we got 3 or 4 braimer cross bulls in a pen down here at the salebarn but we are almost out of booze. Grab some more and meet us out here we are going to buck them til they stop buckin!

Don't ask me how I know this.

I spoke with the rodeo people today and they said that he couldn't just sign up and ride.

I told him if it was something he wanted to do i would find a clinic even if it was 6 hrs away and take him but he declined. Said he only wanted to do it if he could here and not something he wanted to sign up annd spend a lot of time and money for.

Sounds like he was misinformed or misunderstood what the people were saying that said all he had to do was sign up to ride.

They are around. I have a good friend here that runs a rodeo company. He puts on a couple clinics a year, holds a rodeo every Saturday night all summer and runs a practice pen most Sundays weather permitting. If you can find someone like him in your area that would be a good place to start.
