Meet Emily, 30 years young, a fearless and determined woman from Central Queensland with a burning passion for Bronc Riding and a deep love of Rodeo. 

Currently pursuing her dreams of becoming a successful Ranch Bronc Rider.

Emily was introduced to bucking horses for the first time in 2017 at a winning edge saddle bronc school in Gatton, Qld.

Despite facing criticism and doubts from those around her, Emily never wavered in her pursuit of becoming a female bronc rider. 

Her zealousness and dedication paid off when she was crowned this seasons Australian Champion and qualified to compete at the World Finals. 

This year Emily will represent her country by entering the arena at the Cheyenne Frontier Days Rodeo as Team Captain of ‘Team Australia’ in the ‘Women’s Ranch Bronc Championships’ World Finals 2024!

To excel Emily knows she needs to be constantly pushing her limits and is ready to commit, but at the same time realises that the road to success will be expensive. She is seeking assistance with covering the costs of competing abroad. (Travel, accommodation, insurance, visa, rental car, fuel, nomination fees, nutrition, training, coaching and recovery ect.)

With her talent, determination, and dedication, there's no doubt that Emily will continue to make her mark in the world of rodeo, setting new goals for herself and inspiring others to follow their own dreams.

Emily would like to thank you all for believing in her and for having faith. Your support and donations big or small make a huge impact towards her success and mean the world to her.
