AHA is headed to Scottsdale! Come meet with the AHA staff from February 17th-27th. We are located in the South East corner of the South Hall. Stop by to receive assistance with any paperwork, renew a membership, Prize Money Program payments, or just to say hello!

Plus, if you join AHA or renew your membership, you will receive a free gift while supplies last. Our staff is looking forward to providing personal assistance and answering any questions!

Qualification Reminder Remember that you can use qualifications from the 2021 competition year. Placings which were recorded by AHA at local recognized competitions (1st through 6th) and Top Fives awarded at Regional Championships, Pacific Slope and East Coast Championships may be used to qualify you for the 2022 Regionals and Nationals. This year AHA will be recording all participations from the 2022 competitions. To view the Participation Qualification Q & A, click here.

Open Qualifying still exists Many disciplines are eligible to use participations earned from open shows. These are shows which are not recognized by AHA but are recognized by the appropriate governing body for that discipline. The following may use open qualifying reporting: Dressage, Working Hunter, Hunter Hack, Jumper, Cutting, Working Cow Horse, Ranch Horse, Reining, Reined Cow, Eventing/Trials, Combined Carriage Driving and Driven Dressage. Note that some of these disciplines do not require qualifications, however, we will still record the open results submitted for the Achievement Award Program.
