CWHBA is proud to sponsor National Performance Awards including the Year End awards for registered Canadian Warmblood horses competing in recognized competition. Awards are given in Dressage, Jumping, Eventing (Combined Training), Hunter and Driving. There are three levels of performance in each discipline for Year End Awards, based on Equine Canada (CEF) and/or USA Equestrian/AHSA standards.
*Horses must be registered as Canadian Warmbloods; studbook entered mares and stallions are not eligible for Year End Awards, though may accumulate points towards Achievement Awards.
2009 Year End Awards were announced at the
National AGM in Saskatoon, February 22, 2010.
