PBRA showcases top-tier competitions such as the Monster Energy Tour, the PBR Origin Series, and the PBR Grand Finals. Through the PBR Touring Pro Division and the Can-Am Junior Academy, the organisation also supports the development of rising talent and offers a clear pathway to the U.S. circuit, where Australian athletes can compete for significant prize money and global recognition.
