NCCA Pryde’s EasiFeed National Champion Rider Title
Event 2017
The NCCA PRYDE’S EasiFeed NATIONAL CHAMPION RIDER TITLE EVENT
2017 was held at Warwick and hotly contested by competitors from the four
associations, with Rohan Marks from the ACA taking out the title riding his horse
Cowboy .5 in front of ACA rider Steve Comiskey.
The event is staged over three rounds, with the highest total aggregate rider declared
the winner. The top five riders from each of the four Campdrafting Associations in
Australia being the Australian Campdrafting Association (ACA), Australian
Bushman’s Campdrafting and Rodeo Association (ABCRA), Southern Campdrafting
Association (SCA) and Gippsland Campdrafting Association (GCA) coming together
to compete against one another for the title of 2016 NCCA Pryde’s Easifeed National
Champion Rider. This year we saw the edition of the Champion Lady Rider from
each association join their team to bring the team total to 6.
This event was again made possible with the large and continued support of Pryde’s
EasiFeed who donated cash and product to the value of $25,000 and all Associations
join with the NCCA in thanking Peter Pryde for his generous Sponsorship. Thanks
also to Rod Kidner for his continued efforts, help and support during the event.
