Our Work
Let's talk about the exciting components of Barriler@s, Inc of Puerto Rico. How does our affiliation with the NBHA-PR enhance our competitive edge at the World Championships, and in what ways do our local rodeo events foster community engagement and cultural heritage? Additionally, what unique opportunities do our international exchanges offer to our members and the broader equestrian community?
01. NBHA - PR
As an affiliate of the National Horse Barrel Association, NBHA-PR allows our members to compete on a global stage at the World Championships in Perry, GA each year. This affiliation provides our riders with the opportunity to showcase their skills and dedication while competing against the best barrel racers from around the world. It also fosters a sense of pride and accomplishment as they represent Puerto Rico in an international arena.
02. Rodeo
Our local events are the heart of Barriler@s, Inc, bringing together our community of riders and enthusiasts on the island. Divided into two regions, Southwest and Northeast, we strive to hold at least one event each month. These rodeos are more than just competitions; they are celebrations of our shared passion for equestrian sports and our cultural heritage. Participants of all ages and skill levels are welcomed, creating a supportive and family-friendly environment where everyone can enjoy and learn from each other.
03. International Exchange
Our commitment to cultural exchange and global participation is highlighted through our International Exchange program. By participating in renowned equine events in various countries, our members have the chance to exhibit their discipline and skills on an international stage. These exchanges not only showcase our talents but also allow for a rich exchange of cultural education, fostering understanding and appreciation between different equestrian communities worldwide. This component of our organization helps to broaden horizons, build international relationships, and promote the equestrian culture of Puerto Rico globally.
