All Indian Rodeo Cowboys Association

The All Indian Rodeo Cowboys Association (AIRCA) (formerly All Indian Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association) is a Native American organization which promotes Indian rodeo. It sponsors a schedule of local rodeos mostly in Arizona, the Indian Pro Rodeo Tour, leading up to a National Finals rodeo each year in which Native American rodeo performers compete.[1] They cooperate closely with the Central Navajo Rodeo Association (CNRA) and the New Mexico Rodeo Association (NMRA). To compete in the Finals a performer must have competed in at least 30 rodeos during that year.
