AWARD APPLICATIONS ARE DUE NOVEMBER 30

Eligibility: Acceptance of competition results is contingent upon:

Both the owner and the rider must be current members of FHANA at the time the scores are earned, and the horse ridden must be a FHANA (KFPS) registered Friesian;
Any ADS, USEF, USDF, SHS, or EC dressage test scored by an ADS, USEF, USDF, SHS, or EC dressage judge may be submitted.
Riders must complete and submit the Performance Western Dressage form with a copy of each test reported. Results may be randomly validated;
Rider/horse combination may include results from a maximum of ten (10) classes only – scores may only be from Western Dressage Classes.
Each rider/horse combination requires a separate entry.
Recognized competitions may be from the United States or Canada.
Effective March 20, 2024: of the reported scores, there is no limit on the number of scores from videoed tests scored by Spotlight Horse Shows.

If a class is judged by more than one official, the results must be averaged together for one award score. (example: one cannot turn in three tests or 3 results from three different judges all from the same ride/drive/class when there were 3 officials judging, but the average of those scores may be used for one score).

Scoring: The score for each event that you participate is made of three parts: show type, test level, and % score.

Points are granted for each type of show. See the table below:

Type of Event or Show	Show Points
National Championship	5
State/Provincial/USEF/SHS/EC Regional Championship	4
USEF/SHS/EC Recognized Show	3
Non-Recognized or Schooling Show	2

2. Points for your level within the event, shown below:

Dressage Level	Placing Points	Freestyle Level	Freestyle Level Points
Level 5	7	Level 5	7.5
Level 4	6	Level 4	6.5
Level 3	5	Level 3	5.5
Level 2	4	Level 2	4.5
Level 1	3	Level 1	3.5
Basic	2	Basic	2.5
Intro	1	Intro	1.5

Points for your placing within the event, shown below:

Percentage Score	Score Points
80.0 & above	6
70.0-79.9	5
65.0-69.9	4
60.0-64.9	3
55.0-59.9	2
50.0-54.9	1

The total score for a class is determined by multiplying the Show Points times the Level Points times the Score Points.

Example:

Suppose you participate in a local USEF recognized show in Level 2, Test 3 and earn a score of 61%. This event would be scored as follows:
For the type of event 2pts; for the level shown 4pts; for the score 3pts. The total score would be 2 times 4 times 3 or 24 points. ( 2 x 4 x 3 = 24).

For the type of show	2pts
For the level of show	4pts
For the score	3pts

The total score would be: 2 x 4 x 3 or 24 pts
