run a cloverleaf pattern around preset <a href="/wiki/Barrel" title="Barrel">barrels</a> in the fastest time. In collegiate and professional ranks, it is usually a women's event, though both sexes compete at amateur and youth levels. It requires a combination of the horse's athletic ability and the horsemanship skills of a rider in order to safely and successfully maneuver the horse around three barrels placed in a triangle pattern within a large <a href="/wiki/Arena" title="Arena">arena</a>. </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="History">History</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Barrel_racing&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: History"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Barrel racing originally developed as an event for women. In early barrel racing, the pattern alternated between a figure-eight and a cloverleaf pattern. The figure-eight was eventually dropped in favor of the more difficult cloverleaf.<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>It is believed that competitive barrel racing was first held in Texas. The <a href="/wiki/Women%27s_Professional_Rodeo_Association" title="Women's Professional Rodeo Association">Women's Professional Rodeo Association</a> (WPRA) was founded in 1948 by a group of women from <a href="/wiki/Texas" title="Texas">Texas</a> who were trying to find a place for women in the wider sport of rodeo.<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> When it began, the WPRA was called the Girls Rodeo Association (GRA). It consisted of 74 members, with about 60 approved tour events. The Girls Rodeo Association was the first body of rodeo developed specifically for women. The GRA changed its name to Women's Professional Rodeo Association in 1981, and the WPRA still provides women competition opportunities in several rodeo events, but barrel racing remains the most popular. Even so, the sport of barrel racing is played by large numbers of both boys and girls, especially in rural and remote areas. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Modern_event">Modern event</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Barrel_racing&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Modern event"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Today, barrel racing is a part of most <a href="/wiki/Rodeo" title="Rodeo">rodeos</a>, and is also included at <a href="/wiki/Gymkhana_(equestrian)" title="Gymkhana (equestrian)">gymkhana or O-Mok-See</a> events, which are generally amateur competitions open to riders of all ages and abilities. In amateur competition other related speed events (such as <a href="/wiki/Keyhole_race" title="Keyhole race">keyhole race</a> and <a href="/wiki/Pole_bending" title="Pole bending">pole bending</a>) may be added. Barrel racing at this level is usually an event in which riders are grouped by age. There are also open barrel racing jackpots, some open to all contestants no matter their age or gender. </p><p>The main purpose of barrel racing is to run a set pattern as fast as possible. The times are measured either by an <a href="/wiki/Electric_eye" title="Electric eye">electric eye</a>, a device using a laser system to record times, or by a judge who drops a flag to let the timer know when to start and stop the clock. Judges and timers are more commonly seen in local and non-professional events. The timer begins when horse and rider cross the starting line, and ends when the barrel pattern has been successfully executed and horse and rider cross the finish line. Success depends on several factors, most commonly the horse's physical and mental condition, the rider's horsemanship abilities, and the type of ground or footing (the quality, depth, content, etc. of the sand or dirt in the arena).<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Barrel_course.png" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/b9/Barrel_course.png/220px-Barrel_course.png" decoding="async" width="220" height="215" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/b9/Barrel_course.png/330px-Barrel_course.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/b/b9/Barrel_course.png 2x" data-file-width="354" data-file-height="346" /></a><figcaption>Diagram of a Barrel Racing Course. Riders enter at the red line, circle around the 1st barrel, proceed to the 2nd barrel, and then continue on to the 3rd where they will complete the pattern and finally exit the course crossing the red line a second time. This pattern is often referred to as a "Cloverleaf". The pattern may also begin with the left barrel first.</figcaption></figure><p> Beginning a barrel race, the horse and rider will enter the arena at top speed, through the center entrance (or alley if in a rodeo arena). Once in the arena, the electronic timer beam is crossed by the horse and rider. The timer keeps running until the beam is crossed again at the end of the run. </p><p>Modern barrel racing horses not only need to be fast, but also strong, agile, and intelligent. Strength and agility are needed to maneuver the course in as little distance as possible. A horse that is able to "hug the barrels" as well as maneuver the course quickly and accurately follow commands, will be a horse with consistently fast times.<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Rules_and_pattern">Rules and pattern</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Barrel_racing&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Rules and pattern"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>In barrel racing, the fastest time wins. Running past a barrel and off the pattern will result in a "no time" score and disqualification. If a barrel racer or her horse hits a barrel and knocks it over there is a time penalty of five seconds (sometimes more), which usually will result in a time too slow to win. There is a sixty-second time limit to complete the course after time begins. Contestants cannot be required to start a run from an off-center alleyway, but contestants are not allowed to enter the arena and "set" the horse. At professional rodeos, it is required that the arena be <a href="/wiki/Harrow_(tool)" title="Harrow (tool)">harrowed</a> after twelve contestants have run. Barrels are required to be fifty-five gallons, metal, enclosed at both ends, and of at least two colors. Competitors in the National Barrel Racing Association (NBRA) are required to wear a western long-sleeved shirt (tucked in), western cut pants or jeans, western hat, and boots. Competitors are required to abide by this dress code beginning one hour before the competition.<sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Standard barrel racing patterns require measured distances between the start line and the first barrel, from the first to the second barrel, and from the second to the third barrel.<sup id="cite_ref-6" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Usually the established distances are as follows: </p> <ul><li>90 feet (27 m) between barrel 1 and 2.</li> <li>105 feet (32 m) between barrel 1 and 3 and between 2 and 3.</li> <li>60 feet (18 m) from barrels 1 and 2 to score line.</li></ul> <p>In a standard <a href="/wiki/Women%27s_Professional_Rodeo_Association" title="Women's Professional Rodeo Association">WPRA</a> pattern, the score line begins at the plane of arena, meaning from fence to fence regardless of the position of the electric eye or timer. </p><p>In larger arenas, there is a maximum allowable distance of 105 feet (32 m) between barrels 1 and 2, and a maximum distance of 120 feet (37 m) between barrels 2 and 3, and 1 and 3. Barrels 1 and 2 must be at least 18 feet (5.5 m) from the sides of the arena — in smaller arenas this distance may be less, but in no instance should the barrels be any closer than 15 feet (4.6 m) from the sides of the arena. </p><p>Barrel 3 should be no closer than 25 feet (7.6 m) from the end of the arena, and should be set no more than 15 feet (4.6 m) longer than the first and second barrel. If arena size permits, barrels must be set 60 feet (18 m) or further apart.

The rider can decide whether to go to the left or the right barrel first. Each turn in barrel racing is, ideally, a relatively even half-circle around the barrel that takes about three strides. It is best to use the inside leg while going around the first half of a barrel, and the outside leg in the second half. In approaching the second barrel, the horse must do a <a href="/wiki/Flying_change" class="mw-redirect" title="Flying change">flying change</a> of lead and rider must identify the correct spot to approach the turn around the second barrel. The turn around the third and final barrel is in the same direction as the second barrel. Completing the third and final turn, horse and rider race for "home", the line that stops the timer and ends the run. </p><p>As the horse sets up to take the turn, the rider must be in position as well, sitting deeply in the saddle, using the inside hand to guide the horse through and around the barrel turn. The rider's leg to the inside of the turn is held securely along the girth to support the horse's rib cage and give them a focal point for the turn. The athleticism required for this maneuvering comes from optimum physical fitness of the rider and especially the horse. Improper preparation for such a sport can cause injury to both horse and rider. Injury can be avoided by using the proper protection for both horse and rider. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Associations_and_sanctioning_bodies">Associations and sanctioning bodies</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Barrel_racing&action=edit&section=5" title="Edit section: Associations and sanctioning bodies"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-right" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:JasmineBarrelInsane.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/ee/JasmineBarrelInsane.jpg/220px-JasmineBarrelInsane.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="210" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/ee/JasmineBarrelInsane.jpg/330px-JasmineBarrelInsane.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/ee/JasmineBarrelInsane.jpg/440px-JasmineBarrelInsane.jpg 2x" data-file-width="461" data-file-height="440" /></a><figcaption>Training the pattern</figcaption></figure> <p>Since its beginnings, the sport has developed into an organized, well-governed sport.
