The 33rd USTRC Cinch NFTR
- Will Rogers Memorial Center
- April 24–May 1, 2022
For eight days this year, ropers will converge upon the John Justin Arena in the Will Rogers Memorial Center to compete for year-end titles and top money in everything from the Gold Buckle Beer Open down to the newly offered #7 USTRC Championships, plus three new exclusive roping clinics with elite pros.
“With the success and growth of the Cinch NFTR since the move to Fort Worth, an extra day was added to this year’s Finals,” said Director of Marketing and Communications Dru Stewart. “This allows for the addition of more Legends ropings, but also means that, coupled with the three-arena setup, ropings will end each day in time for everyone to enjoy dinner and the town of Fort Worth.”
