Find Your Level for 2015

AQHA exhibitors and American Quarter Horse owners are encouraged to verify their level eligibility now for the 2015 show season. To determine level eligibility for 2015, visit www.aqha.com/leveling to access the AQHA leveling Web-based verification system. 

AQHA divisions – youth, amateur and open – are divided into levels. The leveling program uses an objective handicapping system to assign exhibitors and horses to competition levels. 

Youth, amateur and Select amateur classes, plus open division halter and cattle events, are leveled by exhibitor record. Meaning, the user will search for level eligibility for those classes by exhibitor membership ID. 

All open division classes, excluding halter and cattle events, are leveled by the horse record; the user will search by a horse’s registration number to determine its eligibility.

“As its name suggests, AQHA leveling levels the playing field of AQHA competition,” said AQHA Executive Director of Shows and Judges Pete Kyle. “From the bottom up, leveling is designed to improve exhibitor experiences at AQHA shows and further American Quarter Horses as competitors.”
