Changes in the Industry

Ropers,
Active Interest Media (AIM),
who owns the World Series of Team Roping (WSTR), recently announced their
acquisition of the United States Team Roping Championships (USTRC). Through
this acquisition Ty Yost, Founder of the National Team Roping Tour (NTR), has
been named President-elect of the WSTR and will serve as a liaison during the impending
transition.
The NTR, however, is not a
part of the acquisition and will continue as an independent membership
organization. The current event schedule will remain as set and the 2018 NTR
National Finals IV will take place March 5-10, 2018, at Rancho Rio in
Wickenburg, Ariz.
This new partnership between
AIM, WSTR and the USTRC will also allow the TRIAD to separate from every
membership organization and run as an independent and transparent handicap
organization. We strongly trust this to be a benefit to the industry and the
NTR will continue to use the TRIAD numbering system.
We thank you for roping with
the NTR and hope to see you at an event soon.
