How does judging work?

Performance classes & patterns will be judged on a percentage basis regarding Maneuvers 40% (technical), and Foundational 60% (non-technical which includes relationship & connection, horsemanship skills, cheerfulness, and degree of difficulty). The 40% Maneuver score and the 60% Foundational score for the pattern or freestyle will be combined for a total percentage score.  


Our full judging rubric is available via the link below! *Freestyle divisions updated July 2026*
