Mikayla Askey, 17, of Queen Creek was among those chosen to be a member of the 2021-2022 NRS Show Team.

On Aug. 7, NRS (National Roper’s Supply) inducted its fourth livestock Show Team. In an effort to build awareness of its show supply offerings, NRS began selecting a team of the best 26 youth exhibitors. These exhibitors not only exhibit multiple species but travel around the country to various events.

“The NRS Show Team was created to select an exclusive group of influencers within the livestock industry that would ‘show for the brand.’ These exhibitors were hand selected because of their success and leadership roles within the show world,” said team adviser Tayler Sullivent. “National Roper’s Supply is thankful for each member of our show team and the opportunity to play a part in supporting young agriculturists.”

Askey also served on the 2020-2021 NRS Show Team. Her participation and success in events such as the Maricopa County Fair, the Arizona State Fair and the Southern Arizona International Livestock Association, accompanied by her ability to professionally represent herself and other brands, made her an ideal candidate to represent NRS. Askey looks forward to a successful year of showing and representing National Roper’s Supply both in and out of the show ring.  

The world’s largest retailer of team and calf roping ropes, NRS was built around supplying products to the rodeo and roping world, but in recent years has expanded its offering to include livestock show supplies for most species.
