🏆 ARHA REGIONAL AWARDS ARE COMING! 🏆
As we wrap up our 2026 show season, it's time to start recognizing our Regional High Point Winners! 🎉
Before we begin announcing our Region Champions, we want to remind everyone of the qualifications for the ARHA Regional High Point Buckles.
📌 REGIONAL HIGH POINT AWARD REQUIREMENTS
As outlined on Page 42, Section M of the ARHA Rulebook, buckles will be awarded to the Overall High Point Regional Champion in the following divisions:
Open
Amateur
Youth
Novice Amateur
Novice Youth
To qualify for a Regional High Point Award, exhibitors must:
✅ Earn a minimum of 50 points in their respective region.
✅ Show at a minimum of TWO different charter shows within that region.
✅ Points earned at weekend and regional shows held within that region will count toward the award.
IMPORTANT REMINDER:
If the High Point or Reserve High Point horse or horse/rider combination does not meet the eligibility requirements, no award will be presented. Another horse or horse/rider combination cannot move up to take that position.
Geographical regions are outlined in Section E-4 of the ARHA Rulebook.
Regional awards will be presented at our Annual National Awards Banquet!
We are excited to recognize the accomplishments of our exhibitors throughout the country and celebrate another great year of ranch horse competition!
Good luck to everyone, and stay tuned as we begin announcing our 2026 Regional Champions! 🏆
