Mini Bowl 2026: Seahawks vs Patriots

It’s back and it’s cuter than ever! 🏈🐴

Northland Therapeutic Riding Center’s Mini Bowl fundraiser has returned, and our mini horses are ready to compete for glory.
Each “quarter” features a different Mini Bowl challenge, and YOU get to help decide who takes home the win.

Whether you’re Team Seahawks or Team Patriots, this is your chance to cheer on your favorite team while supporting the life-changing work happening at NTRC every day.

How the Mini Bowl Works

Throughout Mini Bowl week, we’ll be posting videos of each quarter on our Facebook and Instagram. These videos will feature the mini horses competing in different challenges for their team.

This year, we’re mixing it up and that’s where YOU come in.

Each contest’s winner will be decided by:

  • fan support in the comments

  • shares

  • donations (“bets”) placed for each team

Each day we’ll give you an updated score with every individual donation, comment, and share counting as 1 vote.

How to Place a “Bet”

Looking for a chance to win a souvenir, not just impact the score of this historic game? Place “bets” for a chance to win the hoofgraphed game day football!

“Bets” are made by donating to NTRC in support of your favorite Mini Bowl team.

For every $5 donated, you’ll receive one entry into the raffle for the “autographed” Mini Bowl game day ball.

The more you donate, the more raffle entries you receive. 🏈✨

Disclaimer: “Bets” are donations to Northland Therapeutic Riding Center and are not considered gambling. Each $5 donation equals one entry into the drawing for the autographed game day ball. All proceeds benefit NTRC programs and services.

Important Dates

📅 Mini Bowl officially kicks off Monday February 2nd!
We’ll post new quarters and score updates throughout the week, then announce the final winner before the Big Game on Sunday.

What Your Donation Supports

Every Mini Bowl “bet” directly supports Northland Therapeutic Riding Center programs and services, including:

  • equine-assisted services for children and adults

  • care for our incredible therapy horses and mini horses

  • adaptive equipment and tack

  • keeping services accessible to families

When you donate, you’re not just helping a team win. You’re helping create confidence, independence, and joy for participants and families in our community. 💚
