When Trip Breaux saw his friend in a sheep busting rodeo competition, he knew he needed to be in the arena too. Now, two years later, Trip has already graduated to riding bulls and winning championships.

Trip, who is 9 years old and lives in Fannett, has qualified for the 2023 World Championship Miniature Bullriding World Finals on October 2 in Mesquite. His parents are Richard and Traci Breaux.

“When he saw his friend competing, he said ‘I want to do that,’” said Richard. “He just took to it naturally. He’s really good at it.”

To advance to the World competition, Trip had to earn a spot at a qualifying event. He accomplished that at the Louisiana Series J.S. Backyard Bash. Trip typically rides in the Pee Wee Division but at Worlds, he’ll compete a level higher, in the 10-12-year-old Junior Mini Division. When he recently competed in the Junior Division at a Crockett rodeo, he finished in second place.

“It means a lot to have 2S Companies sponsor Trip,” said Richard.
