AMHA Merit Program is proud to announce the New and Improved..
MERIT PROGRAM
The AMHA Youth Committee has been working hard to improve and renovate all 5 levels of the Merit Program.

Do you have a Youth that would like to become an AMHA Youth member? Complete the Figure Level of the Merit Program and get a FREE YOUTH MEMBERSHIP for the remainder of the year!
AMHA TEAMS PROGRAM
The AMHA Teams Program is made possible in part by funding received by the United States Equestrian Federation. USEF has provided funding for the program that will go toward end of year awards.
The Program is based on an accumulation of points within your “team” throughout the competition year. It recognizes Morgan youth at all levels of horsemanship. Points will be earned performing many different tasks relating to the Morgan horse from all aspects, from home at the barn, to horse shows, to their commitment to AMHA youth programs such as Youth Contests and the AMHA Youth Council.
