Miss Teen UPRA 2026

Maddie Diaz

Maddie Diaz was crowned Miss Teen United Professional Rodeo Association on October 18, 2025, at the State Fair of Texas. She is honored to have the privilege to represent the great sport of rodeo, and through hard work and dedication, she will continue to share her passion of the western way of life with the UPRA! Maddie is from Fort Bend County, Texas and travels the state attending rodeos, speaking at church events, sports functions, and bull riding events. Aside from being rodeo royalty, Maddie also runs barrels, poles and straights at many area rodeos and is a member of the Rodeo Sweethearts drill team. Bowie and Barbie are her two beautiful equine athletes! She loves taking them to parades and going on trial rides when she is not participating in rodeos. Outside of the arena Maddie is the Chaplin of her FFA Chapter and enjoys showing steers, goats, and chickens.
