Rebel V Mini Buckers
Welcome to the Rodeo!
Founded by the folks who expanded mini/youth bull riding into the Michigan/Indiana/Ohio area in 2016. Including the Jr Bull Riding at the PBR events in the tri state area!
The Rebel V Mini Buckers is a 501c3 nonprofit started by the Rebel V Ranch family members. Jason is a disabled Veteran who grew up around the sport of rodeo and competed as an adult in rough stock events. His wife, Megan, grew up around the sport of rodeo and was more than willing to let their children travel down the rodeo road chasing their dreams. Now that all three have become adults, the whole family has turned their passion for teaching the sport of rodeo to create a brighter future for the sport, specifically, youth who want to learn the sport.
Our organization's mission is to encourage youth to learn good sportsmanship and real-life skills through the sport of rodeo while promoting education in safety and respect for themselves and others.
The Vision of our organization is to foster an environment for youth to learn accountability to themselves and those around them. We will encourage them to grow as people through their involvement in the sport of rodeo and learn how to create and maintain an environment that is as safe as possible while competing in the rodeo arena and the arena of life.
Through the coaching and teaching provided by the adult volunteers, we will offer the tools necessary for youth members to develop the base required to build skills to compete at higher levels and live a contributory life. We firmly believe the Western way of life and the sport of rodeo is a great foundation to teach youth the skills they need to live productive and successful lives that contribute to the good in society.
This organization's long-term vision and goal are to create a program that not only teaches the foundations but also provides scholarships and opportunities to participate in rodeos to mentally, physically, emotionally, or economically challenged youth.
Our goal is to provide camps, clinics, and practice pens that give youth the chance to hone their skills in the safest environment possible. This goal is only attainable with the help of sponsors and donors who help the Rebel V Mini Buckers scale to a level that benefits as many youth as possible.
