If the fine is paid during a roping then it will be added to the average of that roping. No hitting or whipping of horse on the head in the arena or in view of the public will be tolerated. Breakaway Roping will allow girls, boys under 14 years of age, and men 60 years of age and over to enter. The day the boy roper turns 14, he is no longer eligible to enter. All ropers will be eligible for prizes.
Any catch is legal as long as the rope goes over the head and is broken away from the saddle horn.
Flag tied to rope must be positioned against the saddle horn, or could result in a no-time. The string must be broken from the saddle horn by the calf or it will result in a no-time. Only one loop is allowed. Back gate will be left open. Once the calf breaks the plane of the back gate, the run is over.
