AWARD LIMITATIONS

• Each high point winner is eligible for only one saddle.  

  • Should a rider place first in two different categories then he/she will receive the award with the largest number of points. IE if a rider places first in the youth division and first in the 3 rated rider division, then that rider would receive the saddle for first place in the 3 rated rider division(assuming they had accumulated more points in the 3 rated rider division, and the second place award for the youth division.

Riders can receive multiple awards in multiple prize categories (excepting the aforementioned saddle)  All 2nd-5th place winners will receive the award they qualified for.  However if a rider places first in 2 different categories, that rider will receive the 2nd place award and subsequent riders will receive the 3rd-5th place awards.  A rider could receive awards in multiple divisions. 

 

• The State Finals Competition shall be a double point’s show for all classes with less than 100 teams.  For classes with 100 teams of over the points will remain the same.  IE if there is a class of 120 teams the winner of the class will receive 20 points not 40 points.

• the leader of the 3 division has accumulated 195 points

• then the rider transferring to the 3 division shall transfer only 195 points
