High Point Winners     High Point Winners     High Point Winners


The AHAA awards high point trophies in recognition of our members' achievements.

When you compete at an AHAA recognized show, you are earning points for Year End Awards and High Point Trophies. You can earn a High Point Trophy for:

  • Halter
  • Junior Performance Horse
  • Senior Performance Horse
  • Cattle Horse, Games Horse
  • Youth Walk/Trot
  • Novice Youth
  • Youth 18 and Under
  • Novice Non Pro
  • Non Pro
  • Open Competition Horse**
  • Open Competition Youth**
  • Trail Riding*
  • Racing. 


Trail Riding Trophy
While most of the trophies are earned for achievements in the Show pen – you can also earn a trophy for Logging the most miles on our AHAA trail rides. 

** Open Competition Horse and Open Competition Youth Trophies
Do you compete against All Breeds? You can earn points towards an AHAA trophy, when you compete at open shows – for example local Light Horse or ARCHA shows.

For these 3 trophies mentioned above you need to get forms from the AHAA so that you are prepared for the upcoming year, these forms will need to be witnessed by show officials on the date of the Show or event. 

Please note that the owner and Rider/Handler need to be a Member of the AHAA to earn your points. If you have a trainer riding the horse, they must be an AHAA member to earn points on your horse. Also Point Tabulation begins on the day of membership, so it is very important to get your membership before your first Show, Trailride, Race or Competition.
