2021 WDAGA High Point Live (In-Person) Show Awards Program
WDAGA is offering the opportunity to win year-end prizes in our 2021 High Point Live (In-Person) Show Awards Program. The rules have changed from last year, so be sure you familiarize yourself with them. You may sign up and pay via PayPal using the form below.
Eligibility
The rider must be a WDAA and a WDAGA member to be eligible. Judges must be an ‘L’ or ‘S’ judge, or an ‘r’ or ‘R’ WDAA judge.
- All awards will be based on a Horse/Rider combination meeting eligibility requirements.
(A) Horse/Rider Combination for levels Intro-Level 1 combination must receive at least 8 WDAA scores by a least 2 different judges.
(B) Horse/Rider Combination for Level 2-Level 4 combination must receive at least 5 scores from two different judges.
(C) To be eligible for Freestyle/Costume, you need a minimum of 1 score.
(D) A Horse/Rider combination can choose from two consecutive levels per show season. For example, you can choose Intro and Basic but not Intro and Level 1.
2. Awards will be presented in the following categories: Open, Adult Amateur, and Junior/Youth rider. Each score can only be used one time. A score cannot be used for multiple categories. For example, if you show at a show that does not separate categories and you have signed up for Amateur and Open year-end awards, you will need to declare which category you want that score to go towards. Each test score can only be used one time. It cannot be used in multiple categories.
3. Western Dressage awards are based on percentage scores and not placings in class. Award results will be tabulated by taking the average of the top 8 scores for the year, Intro through Level 1 and the average top 5 scores for the year for Level 2 through Level 4.
4. The awards year runs from November 1, 2020, to October 31, 2021. You can enter the High Point Live (In-Person) Program anytime prior to November 1, 2021, but only tests ridden after you register and pay will count toward year-end calculations.
(A) EXCEPTION: You can submit scores earned in qualifying shows from November and December 2020 as long as you were a WDAGA member in good standing at that time.
