Requirements
All ponies must be owned and exhibited and trained by SHHA members. Ponies must be nominated and owners, exhibitors and trainers must be SHHA members before points start to count. Points count from the date of the nomination of your pony.
​
When the Awards Chairman receives your nomination, he or she will reply to you verifying the information you have sent. Unless you receive this verification, do not assume that your pony has been nominated. Mail, email, telephone messages, etc. have a way of getting lost. If the specific class is not offered at a particular show, you may compete in any class in that division and it will count toward points, if the animal shown by its nominated class exhibitor. For example, if a juvenile class is not offered, you may compete in open or amateur classes and it will count toward juvenile points if the animal is shown by the nominated juvenile.
​

You can access the form by clicking here. All record points must be received by the Awards Chairman by December 15th. On the record form, use only the correct names of the shows as listed, or the points will not count. Also note that if a particular show does not send in its show results, there is no way of verifying points, therefore your points for that show will not count. Consequently, you should strongly encourage the shows in your area to send their results to the Awards Chairman.
