- "On March 15, 2000, the National Barrel Horse Association of Panama (NBHAP)was formed, a dream longed for by many sports lovers in this country, and which ina short time has obtained recognition and awards in international competitions.
This discipline unites families and has the participation of female and male
competitors of all ages, just as the sport is practiced worldwide. Care, training and preparations before each competition are key to obtaining the best times in a sport in which rider and horse try to complete a cloverleaf pattern, the pair has to rotate through the 3 barrels that form a triangle, and run out of the third barrel at full speed in a straight line. Whoever does it in the shortest time is the winner.
Originally, barrel racing was created for women while men competed in bull riding, colt riding, or calf roping events. The first competitions of this sport took place in Texas, United States.
