SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. (January 28, 2026) — Little Stumps Racing, a leading sports-entertainment company specializing in corgi and dog racing events and experiences, today announced the inaugural Little Stumps Racing Corgi Bowl, set to take place during halftime of the NFL Pro Bowl. The championship event will feature 13 elite corgi racers representing NFL teams from across the league.
The Little Stumps Racing Corgi Bowl brings together champions and runners-up from NFL teams that currently host or have previously hosted official corgi races during their seasons. Each competitor earned their place through standout performances, making this a true best-of-the-best showdown on one of football’s biggest weekends.
Invitations were extended to champion racers from NFL teams that have hosted official corgi races, with the final field determined based on availability. During the 2025 NFL season, 16 teams hosted corgi races, with Little Stumps Racing producing events for 10 teams across the league.
The race format will include two qualifying heats, with the top three finishers from each heat advancing to a championship race, where the first-ever Little Stumps Racing Corgi Bowl Champion will be crowned on the field.
Founded by Jessica Ramberg, Little Stumps Racing partners directly with teams, leagues, and organizations to produce official corgi and dog racing events, delivering high-energy competition and seamless, reliable production while creating memorable fan experiences.
“The Little Stumps Racing Corgi Bowl is something we’ve been building toward since our very first NFL corgi race,” said Ramberg. “Bringing these championship racers together at the Pro Bowl feels like the ultimate celebration of the teams, the handlers, the fans, and the dogs who absolutely love to race. This is a moment for the corgi racing community, and we can’t wait to see it come to life.”
In addition to the on-field competition, the Little Stumps Racing Corgi Bowl highlights the unique bond between handlers and their dogs, many of whom travel across the country to compete and have built loyal fan followings through their local team races.
“To me, being part of the Little Stumps Racing Corgi Bowl means showing out for the corgi community. It’s about cheering on every dog and every team, sharing laughs, and creating memories that we’ll always cherish! I also love supporting and watching and being a part of Little Stumps Racing’s growth!”
— Cooper, representing the Denver Broncos
“It’s such an honor!! The fact that Angus is 10 and a senior dog being able to participate is such a dream to us. We are so happy to be here!”

“It means everything. Yoshi racing has been an incredible journey and Little Stumps Racing has given us memories we never imagined we’d have. Winning is amazing, but being part of such a fun, supportive community and getting to do activities together is what really matters to us.”
— Yoshi, representing the Los Angeles Rams
“It is truly an honor to be part of the Little Stumps family. We love bringing smiles to thousands of kids, families, football fans (New York Giants fans) and corgi enthusiasts. We are proud of Sam and all of his accomplishments! To make it to finals is incredible and we are grateful to have been given this opportunity!”
