Horse shows are one of the best forms of competition because they offer controlled evaluation and reward for excellent performance. Youngsters that participate gain great rewards which are truly life skill building for them. We recommend that you support horse show activities for your children.

Horse Shows of course just one of the many ways people interact with their horses. The best show organisers provide challenging courses that everyone can enjoy. These shows are a big ego thing. If you win you feel pretty positive about yourself and your horse, it is great for riders.

Riders in some of our local shows must accumulate a total of 35 points to point out of their class' division and move on to the next level. Doing so would qualify them to compete in Regionals with the possibility of moving on to Zones and then Nationals.

The programmed events at horse shows include barrels, stick horse barrels, dummy roping, poles, goat ribbon pull, goat tying and keyhole. Age groups are 6 and under (parents may help), 7 to 9, 10 to 13 and 14 to 18.
