- Trainers must complete and submit the reporting form with all the appropriate information. Submitted points may be randomly validated.
- Trainers may include results from ten (10) classes only. Results from any class that the trainer enters, the exhibitor(s) he/she trains, enters, as well as the classes a horse(s) that he/she trains for performance and enters may be used. A show event may result in qualifying scores from more than one class.
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 average of those scores may be used for one score.)
Scoring:The score for each class that you participate in is made of three parts:
- Points are granted for each type of show. See the table below:
Type of Event or Show | Show Points |
National Championships | 5 |
State/Provincial/Regional Championships | 4 |
SHS/ADS/USEF/EC Recognized Show | 3 |
Non-Recognized Event or Schooling Show | 2 |
2. Points for your placing within the event. See the table below:
Placing in Show Class | Placing Points |
1st | 6 |
2nd | 5 |
3rd | 4 |
4th | 3 |
5th | 2 |
6th | 1 |
3. Points for the total number of entrants in the show class. The point value is simply the number of entries in the class.
The total score for the show class is determined by multiplying the Show Points times the Placing Points times the Number of entries in the class.
Show Example:
Suppose you train a horse that competes in a USEF Regional Championship Event that the horse placed 2nd out of 8 entries in a hunt seat class. This event would be scored as follows:
For the type of show | 4pts |
For the placing | 5pts |
For the total number of entries in the class | 8pts |
The total score would be | 4 times 5 times 8 or 160pts |
