2008
RULE CHANGES AFFECTING YEAR END AWARDS AND TEAM
QUALIFYING |
|
The youth
voted to eliminate the Friday shows start time rule
for IQHA approved shows. Previously, it was our rule
that shows held on Fridays during the school year
could not begin the youth classes until 4:00 PM. The
youth have voted to eliminate this rule, allowing
Friday shows to have a “normal” show schedule and
still count toward year end awards and qualifying.
Any youth wishing to qualify for the 2008 AQHA Youth
World Championship Show or the Congress NYATT Teams
must sign and return a letter of intent (available
on IQHA website or through youth advisor) and must
sell a minimum of 25 AQHA FORD TRUCK RAFFLE TICKETS
– information is noted on the letter of intent.
Letters of intent must be filed prior to any
qualifying points being earned.
