“Most of our alliance partners level their competition playing field on money earned by their exhibitors. AQHA exhibitors are leveled by points earned and by winning an AQHA world or reserve world champion title. By combining both methods, we look to further level the playing field and protect the integrity of the Adequan® Level 2 championships at the Lucas Oil World,” said AQHA Chief Show Officer Pete Kyle.

• National Snaffle Bit Association
• National Reining Horse Association
• National Reined Cow Horse Association
• National Cutting Horse Association
• Ranch Sorting National Championships Association
