QUARTER HORSE ASSOCIATION OF ALBERTA

Membership structure changes

Simpler

In the past memberships were confusing. They kind of went with the horse, sometimes the exhibitor. Families with multiple horses paid a lot.

Starting in 2020 your QHAA membership is simply on the person, show as many horses as you want.

And remember you do not have to be a QHAA member to show. But, to save money by using the all inclusive fee, or to be eligible for all of those cool year end awards you do want a membership.

Here is the new rule:

a. A $60 individual QHAA membership is required from the owner and the exhibitor to be eligible for year end awards in AQHA classes.

b. QHAA memberships are required from the owner to be eligible for the all- inclusive show fee.

c. Owner and exhibitor must be QHAA members for QHAA stake or QHAA futurity classes.

d. QHAA memberships are not required for partner association classes (NSBA futurity classes, NRHA, ABRA, etc.) Most Gold Rush futurity classes do not require a QHAA membership because they are NSBA.

All memberships need to be bought on-line, not from the show secretary at the show. Click here and it's easy.

Clarification of Supreme Halter Judging

Canadian National Quarter Horse Show

The Supreme Halter Champion is a non AQHA class. The determination of the winner will be as follows:

It will be one award, all sex divisions combined.
At the conclusion of the regular halter all winners of a Grand Champion award are invited to reenter the ring to be rejudged. Exhibitors and horses must be ready and immediately enter the ring at the direction of the Ring Steward.
Individual judges will pick the best horse of the class and the winner will be determined by the combined placing of all the judges based on a numerical score system.
Prior to the class, tie a breaking judge will be randomly selected.
