MANITOBA TEAM PENNING ASSOCIATION
On behalf of the Manitoba Team Penning Association (MTPA), I would like to introduce you to the dynamic world of Team Penning, North America’s newest and fastest growing segment of the equine industry.
WHAT IS TEAM PENNING
During the last decade, Team Penning has taken the horse world by storm. People from all walks of life are competing on all breeds of horses. No cowboy background is necessary to Team Pen, just saddle up and head’em for the pen! It is a sport in which the entire family can participate.
The concept of Team Penning is three riders attempt to separate three identically numbered cattle from a herd of approximately 30 milling cattle, drive them the length of the arena, and then attempt to corral them in the pen; hence, the name “Team Penning”. To add excitement and crowd appeal, this feat must be completed within a designated time frame, and of course, the fastest time wins. As you can well imagine, uncooperative cattle, fast horses and howling participants ensure enormous crowd appeal.
The roots of Team Penning are steeped in western heritage, back to the days of cattle drives. It has developed into a sport in which anyone who can ride a horse can participate. Team Penning offers the opportunity to enjoy our western roots and enjoy the company of some of the finest folks that ever wore boots!
WHAT YOUR BUSINESS ADVERTISING DOLLAR WILL PURCHASE
The cattle are numbered 0-9 and are constantly being called for each team as they start their run. We would like to offer you the chance to advertise your business each time a number is called. Depending on which package you choose, your business could be promoted a minimum of 25 times during the competition. For example, for your “purchase” of the number “0”, the announcer will promote your Company during the penning, after the herd changes and at the end of the class.
