OKLAHOMA CITY, OK – The Oklahoma Wildcatters today announced that their annual PBR Teams league homestand, PBR Wildcatter Days presented by zone Premium Nicotine Pouches will return to Paycom Center next season on July 31-Aug. 2, 2026.
The Wildcatters are Oklahoma’s only professional bull riding team, competing in the PBR Teams league, which transforms bull riding from an individual to team-formatted competition. The Wildcatters joined the league prior to the 2024 season as one of two expansion teams. The 2025 Wildcatter Days event was the highest grossing PBR event in Oklahoma history.
The Oklahoma Wildcatters compete under the leadership of Head Coach, two-time PBR World Champion and bull riding icon J.B. Mauney. Heading into their third season in the league, their roster features the likes of 2021 and 2024 National Finals Rodeo (NFR) aggregate winner and 2024 PRCA World Champion Josh Frost, surging young gun Cort McFadden, and Oklahoman Kase Hitt. McFadden and Frost combined for nearly 40% of all points scored by Oklahoma in 2025.
Cort McFadden continued his rise after a successful Unleash The Beast season, reaching his 100th career qualified ride with a 90-point effort aboard Doze You Down. Veteran Josh Frost delivered one of the signature moments of the 2025 PBR Camping World Team Series season with a 92.5-point ride on two-time PBR World Champion Man Hater in Kansas City. With a clean-sweep weekend in Springfield and thrilling upsets throughout the year, including a win over the top-seeded Florida Freedom, the Wildcatters showed their true potential heading into a promising 2026 campaign.
PBR Teams League event attendance continued to increase in the 2025 season. The bull riding games reached 3 million people when airing on CBS and CW on the same weekend, for a record high 28.2 million total fans reached in 2025 . Even with a ranker pen of bulls, the on-the-dirt product has never been better, demonstrated in riding percentages at 42.13 percent in 2025. This is up by almost a full two percent. The competition was fierce throughout the entire season and another Championship was decided in the final outs of the Championship game to crown this year’s winner.
