Maple Creek’s Jared Parsonage goes 4-for-4 at Rogers Place to win the Command Tubular PBR Canada National Finals and the 2025 PBR Canada Championship—then hangs up his rope
By NetNewsLedger Sports
EDMONTON, Alta. — Ladies and gents, pull your hats down tight—because Jared Parsonage just wrote the perfect rodeo finish. The Maple Creek, Saskatchewan cowboy won the Command Tubular PBR Canada National Finals presented by Edmonton’s Best Hotels, clinched the 2025 PBR Canada Championship, and then announced his retirement. That’s right—walk-off win, gold buckle, and goodbye, all in one night inside Rogers Place.
The Money and the Matchups
Parsonage pocketed $150,000 at the Finals (including the $100,000 champ’s bonus) and $230,101.73 on Canadian soil this season, part of a record PBR Canada year that paid out over $1 million across 36 events. He finished 33-for-51 in 2025—64.71% riding percentage—and 213 points ahead of runner-up Dakota Buttar.
How He Won It — Ride by Ride
-
Round 1: Jet Black (Skori Bucking Bulls) — 83.25 pts
-
Round 2: Pyper (Foley Bucking Bulls) — 86.25 pts
-
Round 3: Trailer Trash (Outlaw Buckers) — 84.75 pts
-
Championship Round: The showdown—Moonwalk (Thompson Rodeo Livestock), the year’s No. 1 bull. Parsonage had covered him four times already in 2025. Make it five. 87.5 pts to seal the Finals and the Title.
That final dance with Moonwalk brought the house up out of their seats—and crowned Moonwalk the 2025 Canadian Global Bull of the Year with a 43.79-point average.
History Made
Parsonage becomes just the fifth rider to win both the PBR Canada Championship and the PBR Canada National Finals in the same season, joining Zane Lambert (2017), Cody Coverchuk (2018), Daylon Swearingen (2019) and Nick Tetz (2024).
He’s also the first ever to claim the PBR Canada title and the CPRA bull riding championship in the same season—he won his third CPRA buckle in October, also at Rogers Place.
