AQHA Professional Horseman and former director of AQHA Judges, Alex Ross, will be teaching a session on judging Western Pleasure, Trail, Ranch Riding, and Working Western Rail.

Course Description:

This short course is designed for individuals with limited horse show judging experience, coaches of youth judging teams, FFA instructors, and all individuals interested in becoming judges or in attending the Open Horse Show Judges Certification Clinic. Emphasis will be placed on teaching the judging systems appropriate for judging various classes in the western, hunt seat, saddle seat, and non-trotting divisions. Participants will have a unique opportunity to interact one-on-one with experts to improve their judging expertise while learning the judging techniques taught at North Carolina State University, whose 4-H teams have earned numerous national and world judging contest championships. Participants will receive a judging manual and judge a variety of video classes in a classroom setting. Participants will also receive in-depth instruction on the judging systems specifically designed to train intercollegiate and youth judging teams and horse show judges.

Fee

The fee for the two-day clinic is $115.00. Registration must be completed by  October 15, 2024, to avoid a $25 late fee. Registration fees are refundable if requested in writing prior to the event. Substitutions for pre-registered participants will be accepted.
