KANSAS CITY, Mo. – Ahead of the 2022 season for the groundbreaking PBR (Professional Bull Riders) Team Series, Kansas City’s first-ever professional bull riding team, the Kansas City Outlaws, have announced their inaugural game schedule. The Kansas City Outlaws’ 28-game 2022 PBR Team Series regular-season schedule is headlined by two appearances on the CBS Game of the Week, as well as showdowns with the Arizona Ridge Riders, Nashville Stampede and Missouri Thunder at the team’s first-ever home event, Outlaw Days, Aug. 5-7 at T-Mobile Center in Kansas City, Missouri.

The PBR Team Series revolutionizes the sport of bull riding, transforming an individual sport into one in which riders join teams to compete in five-on-five bull riding games for a national championship. In the inaugural 2022 season, eight founding teams will compete: the Arizona Ridge Riders, Austin Gamblers, Carolina Cowboys, Missouri Thunder, Nashville Stampede, Oklahoma Freedom, Texas Rattlers, and Kansas City’s own Outlaws.

Throughout the regular season, each team will compete in 28 head-to-head, five-on-five bull riding games¸ held across 10 events. The team with the highest aggregate score will be the game winner, and ties will be allowed.

Each team will host a three-day homestand, welcoming the seven other teams, while also competing in two neutral-site events, beginning with the season-launch event on July 25-26 in Cheyenne, Wyoming. The season will conclude in Las Vegas on Nov. 4-6 when the teams will go head-to-head in the PBR Team Series Championship, vying to be crowned the Team Series Champions.

When the 2022 season gets underway July 25-26 in Cheyenne, Wyoming, the Kansas City Outlaws will compete against the Oklahoma Freedom and Texas Rattlers.

During the preseason, the Outlaws won the first-ever event in Bismarck, North Dakota compliments of a perfect 2-0 effort in their opening games. First beating the Nashville Stampede, then besting the Oklahoma Freedom, the Outlaws clinched the event win when first-round draft pick Dalton Kasel registered an impressive 90.75-point ride in the bonus round. 

As the preseason continued in Tryon, North Carolina, the Outlaws tallied another victory when they shut out the Missouri Thunder 172-0.

Following the event in Cheyenne, the Outlaws will host their inaugural homestand Aug. 5-7 in Kansas City, Missouri, at T-Mobile Center, the second event of the 2022 PBR Team Series season.

During their first-ever home event, the Outlaws will play the Arizona Ridge Riders on Aug. 5, Nashville Stampede on Aug. 6, and Missouri Thunder on Aug. 7.
