PRESS RELEASE

ATTENTION MEMBERS:

Due to the COVID-19 Virus

NCA Members and Supporters:

In light of the COVID-19 we would like to inform you that we will be unable to run our Junior Rodeos in 2020. A lot of planning and cost go into these events and in these hard times we have had to think about our community and sponsors, who have all had to prioritise their work commitments.

We have spoken to the authorities about our Association and have been told we are not the only Association impacted by this pandemic and to encourage members to get behind any future events that we may be able to run.

Some of our Affiliated Rodeos across NT and WA have cancelled most of their events for 2020 and we hope that where possible our community can support any that do go ahead. Keep an eye out on the NCA Facebook page for details. We have started planning for August and September fundraising events to support NCA with some much needed funds to put on a bigger and better 2021 Junior Rodeo season. Again, with the decline in sponsorship we will not be holding an end of year NCA Presentation. We will continue to be in contact with sponsors, members and associated entities before hopefully having a bigger and better outcome next year.

Kind Regards

NCA Management Committee

Hi Everyone, a bit of information about myself, I'm happly married to my wonderful husband Garry Butt for past 25 years, I started my journey with NCA in 2010 and my biggest achievement to far is starting the Wonderful NCA Junior Rodeos in 2013. I have made so many long life friends within the sport of Rodeo and have love watching our young Cowboys & Cowgirls grow into this awesome sport. Garry and myself have been the Junior Rodeo Poddy stock contractors for the last 6 years and I'm happy to say I have found my passion and I am following it for now.

I'm also a NRCA Representative for Top End Drum Runners, the Northern Territory & part of Western Australia..

Regards Toni-Marie Butt
