VERSATILITY RANCH HORSE ADDS AMATEUR COMPETITION
Amarillo, Texas, January 10, 2005 – The American Quarter Horse Association’s Versatility Ranch Horse expands in 2006 with the addition of amateur and novice amateur competition. The AQHA Show Committee approved the addition to the amateur division at the 2005 AQHA Convention in March.
“We received requests from AQHA members wanting to compete in versatility ranch horse competitions although they are not directly involved in ranching,” said Charlie Hemphill, AQHA Senior Director of Shows. “Now amateur exhibitors have the opportunity to compete in this exciting event.”
In order to compete in the amateur division, exhibitors must fulfill the amateur requirements under Rule 403 in the AQHA Official Handbook. Amateur and novice amateur divisions show concurrently with the open ranch division with placings for each respective division recorded. Amateur and/or novice amateur entries will be counted as open entries and will be awarded open points if placed within the classes. Amateur and/or novice amateur entries then will be placed and points will be awarded for their individual divisions.
Versatility

with credits awarded. The credits are then totaled to determine the
overall placings. Incentive Fund-nominated horses can earn money in
Versatility Ranch Horse competition, and there are year-end high-point
awards sponsored by the Southwestern Exposition and Livestock Show in
