This highlight video is dedicated to the apprentices and journeymen teams who competed to be the best of the best at the 37th annual International Lineman's Rodeo.

The 2021 International Lineman's Rodeo brought together linemen and their families after a one-year hiatus due to the COVID-19 pandemic. While we honored linemen virtually last year through the Lineman Celebration Week, it was wonderful to have the line trade together for competition and camaraderie.

Here is a highlight video clip of the apprentices and journeymen teams in action. For more coverage, be sure to follow us on Instagram @linemenworld and also subscribe to our Line Life podcast, which will feature live interviews from the 2021 Rodeo Week.
