POINTS

2025 Point Standings

Points updated as of the March 29-30 show in Salem. If this is your first show, make sure to check that names are spelled correctly and you and your horse are listed under the correct age class. Notify the points keeper if you have any questions.

Year End Awards

NWCC oversees one of the most coveted year end award programs for APHA exhibitors in the Pacific Northwest. To be eligible for NWCC year end awards, an exhibitor must be a current member of an NWCC member club and complete an NWCC declaration form for each horse prior to their first show. Show secretaries are responsible for sending show results to the NWCC points keeper for tabulation of year end awards points. A complete list of rules is available on this website.

All APHA approved classes offered at NWCC approved shows are eligible as year end high point and reserve high point awards, providing a minimum of 25 NWCC points are earned in that class (with the exception of weanling halter and leadline).

Funding for NWCC year end awards is provided by a $1 per judge per class levy which is collected by the show and forwarded to the NWCC treasurer. The money is distributed as follows: 70% to year-end awards, 10% to the points keeper and 20% to APHA national directors and alternates who attend the APHA convention and meet requirements for reimbursement.

2024 Point Standings

Points posted represent the final points of the 2024 season, with the exception of the Open/PAC program.
