Sec. 1. STATE HIGH SCORE AWARDS

The A-System counts points from USEF Regular Member Shows and/or Breed Association recognized shows which may either be WSH-recognized or non-recognized. If not WSH recognized, shows must be held in Washington State.

To compete for High Score Awards in WSH, an exhibitor must fulfill the requirements and have all fees paid before the first show in which points will count.

Sec. 2. RECORDING PROCEDURE

The exhibitor must be a current member of WSH either through a 100% club or an affiliated club, non-member individual, or family membership.

Each exhibitor (horse owner or equitation rider) must designate in advance the High Score Award for which he/she is competing and pay the appropriate annual award participation fee for each designated High Score Award for which he/she is competing. The fees and recording procedure will vary. Refer to the current Recording Form.

Exhibitors earn points in WSH recognized A- or B-System shows by recording and paying the fee for each High Score Award. Refer to current High Score sign up sheet for High Score sign up requirements.

Application for recording and participation fees may be accepted at a show by the show Steward prior to the first class in which the horse or rider is entered. The Steward will note the date and time received, sign and send the forms to the Horse Show Division with the Steward’s Report.

Proof of registration shall be required in all Breed High Score Award classes. A copy of the registration papers must be filed with the Horse Show Division office. When recording horses with multiple registrations, it is necessary to list all the registration numbers.

The use of a registered name by any person other than the registered owner is prohibited and constitutes a violation of the rules.

The Canter/WSH Website shall carry a listing of classes that have qualified.

If any age group Equitation or Pleasure class does not fill, it may be combined, for the current year only.

If a Breed class fails to qualify for High Score Awards it will be transferred to the All Other Breeds class.

If a show offers classes which are not split within the proper age group, points will count in the age group where riders are recorded.

If a class has not filled for 10 years it will be dropped from the list of High Score Awards. If there is a demand for that class later it can be added without any further costs.

To add a new class to the list of High Score Awards it must be sponsored with the sponsorship fee of $40.00. To add a Perpetual trophy for year end awards, the sponsoring individual/club must submit a request before September to the Horse Show Director to have it approved at Convention. The Horse Show Division will not be responsible for awards approved and not provided.

Sec. 2. POINTS

All classes must have a minimum of three (3) participants for points to count.

High Score Awards are based on a minimum of three (3) shows, and a maximum of the eight (8) best shows.

Sec. 3. TABULATION OF POINTS

The Horse Show Division will be responsible for accurately computing scores based on the information furnished to it by the proper authorities of each recognized show. It will not, however, be liable for errors resulting from the failure of any show to file properly marked Result Forms or computer printouts, or for omissions, incorrect placings, or other errors by show management in the marking thereof.

Confirmation of Points: Exhibitors should submit their personal record of their own points for confirmation. The final date to confirm points is October 10, after which all points will remain as posted and no changes will be made. Each request for confirmation must be accompanied by a fee of $10.00. All the books will be closed and removed from the system no later than three (3) weeks after Convention in order to set up the system for the next year.

EACH EXHIBITOR IS ENCOURAGED TO KEEP AN ACCOUNTING OF THEIR POINTS IF THEY WANT THEM VERIFIED.

Some shows which use computers offer show results printouts, usually for a small fee. Exhibitors at these shows are encouraged to take advantage of this service, which will provide them with their placings as recorded by that show. Omissions or errors may then be corrected in a timely manner.
