The Arabian Horse Youth Association (AHYA) hosts the annual Arabian Horse Youth Judging Contest, sponsored by Awards Recognition Concepts, at the U.S. National Arabian and Half-Arabian Championship Horse Show. This is the largest nationally accredited contest for AHA Youth Programs.
This special event is the training ground for young men and women who will shape the horse industry into the next millennium. Approximately 200 contestants from 4-H and FFA clubs, AHA clubs and universities from across the continent evaluate the conformation and performance of some of the finest Arabian horses in the country. The contest will take place during the finals weekend of the 50th Anniversary of the U.S. National Show on October 28-29, 2016 in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
With outstanding competition, hospitality, and more than $10,000 in scholarships and prizes, the 2016 Arabian Horse Judging Contest promises an experience that judging contestants will benefit from for a lifetime! The entry deadline is September 22nd and entry forms can be found at www.arabianhorses.com/youthjudging. The entry fee is $100 and includes all necessary passes and tickets for team members. All classes are free to watch as well.
Like all judging contests, the Arabian Horse Youth Judging Contest could not occur without dedicated volunteers. Please contact AHA if you or someone you know would like to contribute their time. Please direct any questions to Brenna Whitlock at 303.696.4505 or Brenna.whitlock@arabianhorses.org.
