New Generation
Roping
Introduction
Team roping is a rodeo event organized at local, regional and national levels across the US that features two mounted riders and a steer. Over 200,000 registered team ropers worldwide produce over $70 million in purses to recreational contestants each year.
COVID-19 impacted this industry significantly. As team roping events are a congregation of people with a significant social aspect, most of these events were shut down due to the pandemic. Some attempts were made to conduct these events virtually through social platforms, but they posed serious scaling and operational challenges. The objective was to create a scalable technology-driven platform that allowed for virtual team roping.
