Have you ever considered the fast-paced, exciting sport of Team Penning?
Penning is extremely popular in Alberta and gives riders of all ages and their families the opportunity to ride in a competitive but social environment year-round. The rules are simple. They take a moment to learn but a lifetime to master.
​
We welcome new penners to our association for 2025!
​
If you’re looking for some friendly competition, some new friends, and a lot of fun for you and your horse this is the place you want to be. If you are new to the sport we have clinics.
If you’ve been at the sport for a while, we are sure you can make some new friends, but we are sure you will be able to have a lot of fun in Central Alberta Team Penning Association (CATPA).
