IHSA
We compete in IHSA (Intercollegiate Horse Show Association) in the Hunter seat Division. These shows work slightly different then typical horse shows. If you are unfamiliar with the format, upon arrival to the show, riders draw a horse at random from a pool of horses provided by the host school. Riders will mount outside the ring and be led by someone from the host school. They will not be in control of the horse until they enter the ring and the class is being judged. A different horse is drawn for the jumping and flat classes. Sometimes riders draw the same horses and sometimes it is completely different. Riders get points for both themselves and their team if they are the designated point rider. At the end of the show, high point and high point reserve awards are given out to both riders and teams. Teams and riders rack up points throughout the season and after a rider achieves 36 points they qualify for regionals and move up to the next division.
