The Story

The Roper Who Teaches the Why

Charly Crawford is a 10X Wrangler National Finals Rodeo qualifier, professional team roper, trainer, and podcast owner. Raised in Canby, Oregon, Charly grew up in a roping family and built his early foundation through high school rodeo, college rodeo, and a successful amateur career. He earned the 1998 Resistol Rookie Header of the Year and has since become one of the sport’s most respected headers. Today, Charly shares his knowledge with ropers at every level through Charly Crawford Training, an education platform offering in-person team roping clinics, online roping courses, and resources designed to help riders sharpen their skills, improve their horsemanship, and become more confident in the arena.


With more than $1.44 million in PRCA career earnings, Charly qualified for the Wrangler NFR 10 times between 2005 and 2020. Across his career, he has won or placed at many of professional rodeo’s most prestigious events, including RODEOHOUSTON, the Pendleton Round-Up, Cody Stampede, Prescott Frontier Days, St. Paul Rodeo, Ellensburg Rodeo, and Farm-City Pro Rodeo. Charly’s training work also supports the Liberty & Loyalty Foundation, which serves military members, first responders, and their families.
