Energy Transfer, the firm behind the proposed Desert Southwest Pipeline, will serve as the presenting sponsor for the team’s annual training camp and fan event, Ridge Rider Days. Beyond branding on team jerseys, the collaboration establishes a scholarship program for young riders and hosts a series of youth clinics. The first of these clinics, featuring actor and Western advocate Mo Brings Plenty, takes place Saturday morning.
Arizona Ridge Riders Secure Multi-Year Partnership with Energy Transfer
The Arizona Ridge Riders are set to finalize a multi-year sponsorship with energy infrastructure giant Energy Transfer this Saturday. The deal, coinciding with the team’s 2026 training camp in Buckeye, centers on youth development initiatives and marks the company’s first formal entry into the professional bull riding circuit.

General Manager Casey Lane cited the company's commitment to community investment as a primary driver for the alignment. For Energy Transfer, the sponsorship acts as an outreach tool in the Phoenix area. Vicki Anderson Granado, Vice President at Energy Transfer, noted that the partnership aims to expand the company's local impact as it works to bring additional natural gas infrastructure to Arizona. The Ridge Riders, owned by Teton Ridge, open their 2026 PBR Teams season on July 11 in Fort Collins, Colorado.
