KS01 is proud to be part of the Kansas NBHA organization and support the Kansas NBHA State Championships, held each September in Topeka, KS.
In 2024, KS01 will hold 18 district points races and present year end awards in the following classes:
Open 5D
Youth 3D ** goal is to raise the money to award saddles to youth division champions
Senior 3D
Rising Stars 3D
Pee Wee - Unassisted

KS01's 2023 year end awards totaled more than $14,000 in cash and prizes! We hope that the 2024 season will be just as fun and lucrative as our membership continues to grow.Â
We also produce multiple buckle and added money series events throughout the year.
Most races are approved by the Better Barrel Races (BBR), offering our members the opportunity to qualify for the BBR World Finals each April in Oklahoma City, and also earn points toward BBR year end awards. KS01 members placed in several divisions of the BBR Northern Region in 2023.
