4/11/07 REVISED RULE REGARDING WALK TROT AND GREEN RIDER DIVISIONS
After discussion with MTHJA board members regarding several issues that have come up regarding Walk Trot and Green Rider Divisions, the following is effective immediately:

You may receive points even if you only participate in the Under Saddle Classes for this division. If you compete in Walk Trot, you are ineligible for any other MTHJA rated divisions except Green Rider, Under Saddle or Equitation classes at the same show.
2. All of the Green Rider classes (Hunter and Equitation) will be combined into one year end award. The points will follow the rider. You may recerive points even if you only participate in the Under Saddle classes for this division. If you compete in Green Rider, you are ineligible for any other MTHJA rated divisions except Walk Trot, Under Saddle or Equitation classes at the same show.
