What is Ranch Sorting National Championships (RSNC)?
It is the mission of RSNC to lead the industry in developing and improving the sport of Ranch Sorting through
affordability and a fair rating system. Our goal is to preserve the heritage and integrity of the ranching lifestyle while
providing a family oriented, competitive riding experience at the grassroots level.
When was RSNC formed?
RSNC was formally established in the Spring of 2007 by horse enthusiasts who compete and participate in different
equine events and see its potential within the equine industry.
What is the goal of RSNC?
Our goal is to grow the sport to the largest equine sport membership in the nation. RSNC is helping contestants as a
unified force to grow this sport, through exposure and national equine publications and media such as RFD-TV and
Horse TV. We offer easy access to exciting competition for beginners, right up to the expert. 75% of all the
competitors coming to RSNC events are new to horse sport competitions. It’s so easy anyone who can throw a leg
over a horse can have FUN and compete. This is the only equine sport in the nation that allows everyone in the
family to COMPETE, WIN and get the recognition and rewards that in most equine sports only the very top
competitors receive.
What are the benefits of RSNC membership?
1. Your first year membership is FREE
2. Bring a new member the next year and receive another FREE membership
3. Ranch sorting is a timed event, not a judged event
4. You are rated in a 9 point rating system that is based on statistical performance and not opinion
5. There is a level for everyone to be competitive

Why are RSNC events so popular?
1. Competing is affordable
2. RSNC offers a competitive family fun horse sport anyone can afford
3. At regular-season sanctioned events, entry fees start at $15 for a Beginner Ranch Hand
4. Classes are jackpotted so contestants have an opportunity to WIN cash
5. Even with thousands of dollars in cash and prizes at stake, everyone can ride for $50 or less

Is Winning Attainable?
Any person that can ride a horse can be competitive in RSNC ranch sorting. The RSNC 9 point rating system,
combined with the handicapping system, levels the playing field. That way ALL participants have a fair chance to
WIN! The handicapping system encourages the teaming of skilled sorters with the less-experience partners while
the Masters classes feed the appetite of the mature competitor. Beginners, Youth and the Rookies get a piece of
the spotlight as well.
