About the Ranch

More than
bull riding.
A way of life.

Fall Seven Ranch was built on a simple belief: everyone deserves somewhere to start, somewhere to belong, and somewhere to become better.

Founded by Brendon Riley in South East Queensland, Fall Seven Ranch was born from a passion for bull riding, a love of rodeo culture and a desire to create something that Australia needs more of — a place where riders of all levels can come together, learn, train and progress.

Founder — Fall Seven Ranch

How it all started

For me, bull riding has always been about more than eight seconds on the back of a bull. It's about discipline, courage, resilience and learning to get back up when life knocks you down.

Bull riding came into my life at a time when I needed something to challenge me, give me direction and remind me what I was capable of. In many ways, it changed my life.

My trips to America, particularly Texas, opened my eyes to another side of the sport. Training alongside experienced riders, spending time around rodeo facilities and experiencing the American rodeo culture firsthand showed me just how much can be achieved when people have the right environment around them.

What stood out wasn't just the quality of the bulls or the level of competition. It was the culture. The willingness to help the next rider. The respect for the livestock. The hours spent practising, learning and improving. The sense of community where everyone, regardless of experience, shares the same passion.

I wanted to bring that culture home to Australia. Not simply copy what I'd seen in America, but build something of our own with those same values at its heart.

Built for riders. Built for progress.

Fall Seven Ranch is a dedicated bull riding training facility designed to give people a genuine opportunity to enter the sport and develop their skills. We believe progression starts with the right foundations — proper preparation, quality coaching, safe practices and, most importantly, good livestock.

Our bulls are a huge part of what makes the ranch special. We work to provide a range of stock suited to different abilities, so riders can build confidence, develop technique and gradually challenge themselves as their skills improve. It's not about putting someone on the biggest bull in the pen. It's about putting them on the right bull for where they're at, then helping them earn that next level. We take pride in our animals, their welfare and the respect they deserve.

No ego at the gate

Bull riding is challenging enough without feeling like you have something to prove to everyone watching. At Fall Seven Ranch, it doesn't matter where you come from, what you've been through or how much experience you have. If you're willing to turn up, listen, learn and put in the work, you're welcome.

We encourage riders to support each other, celebrate the small wins and understand that progress looks different for everyone. Some days you'll make eight seconds. Some days you won't. What matters is what you take away from the experience and whether you're willing to keep improving.

The vision

My goal is to build Fall Seven Ranch into one of Australia's leading bull riding training facilities — known for quality stock, genuine coaching, regular practice nights, competitive events and a strong community of riders who want to see each other succeed. I want to keep building the connection between Australian and American rodeo culture, creating opportunities for riders from their very first ride through to competing at higher levels.

But no matter how big the ranch becomes, the values will stay the same. Good people. Good stock. No ego. Just progress. Fall Seven Ranch isn't just about producing better bull riders. It's about building better people through the sport we love.

Beyond the Arena

ZerotoEight.

An eight-week program created to introduce people to bull riding while focusing on confidence, personal growth, mental resilience and connection.

It's not just about learning to ride a bull. It's about challenging yourself, stepping outside your comfort zone, surrounding yourself with good people and discovering what you're capable of.

Because sometimes the biggest battles we face have nothing to do with the bull in front of us.
