LAZY E ARENA ANNOUNCES LAUNCH OF JR. IRONMAIDEN CHAMPIONSHIP

Lazy E Arena is proud to announce the launch of the Jr. Ironmaiden Championship, a new all-around competition designed to showcase the next generation of female rodeo athletes.

Set to debut alongside the renowned 2027 Cinch Timed Event Championship, the Jr. Ironmaiden will mirror the format of the Jr. Ironman, featuring a three-round, four-event competition for 10 competitors aged 19 and under. The championship will take place at the legendary Lazy E Arena in Guthrie, Oklahoma.

This all-around format will test contestants across Team Roping Heading, Team Roping Heeling, Breakaway Roping, and Goat Tying, with athletes competing for a $20,000 grand prize and $30,000 added money.

“We’ve seen what the Jr. Ironman has done for the next generation, and it was time to create that same stage for young women,” said Lazy E Arena General Manager Dan Wall. “The Jr. Ironmaiden isn’t just another event—it’s a national spotlight on the future of our sport and a $20,000 opportunity for these athletes.”

In addition, the 2026 Cinch World Championship Junior Rodeo (WCJR) will feature a Jr. Ironmaiden sidepot, with the top athlete earning a direct qualification spot into the 2027 Jr. Ironmaiden Championship.
