2024 SNHSA Nationals Declaration Form


The Marshall & Sterling Insurance/USHJA National Championships are returning to Las Vegas at the Southpoint Hotel & Casino, Nov. 11-17, 2024.

The Championships will feature the USHJA Affiliate Championships for Junior and Adult Amateur riders in 3 disciplines and 16 sections, along with many other National Hunter and Jumper Championships. Affiliate sections offered this year are: :

• Hunters 2’, Children’s and Adult, and Hunters 2’6”, Children’s and Adult
• Equitation 17 & Under 2’, Equitation 17 & Under 2’6”, Equitation 18 & Over 2’0” and Equitation 18 & Over 2’6”
• Children’s and Adult Jumpers at 0.70m, 0.80m, 0.90m and 1.0m

Horse and rider combinations may not compete in both the 2’ and 2’6” Hunter sections. A horse and rider combination may be nominated for and compete in a maximum of two (2) divisions (Hunter, Equitation or Jumper). Horse and rider combinations may compete in a maximum of two (2) consecutive Jumper heights, but may be asked to compete in one USHJA Affiliate Jumper Section height lower or higher than the one qualified to compete. Affiliate riders may not cross-enter into any rated sections, even on another horse.

As a USHJA Affiliate Organization, SNHSA is invited to select three riders for each Nationals Affiliate division, order of preference, with the #1 rider guaranteed a competition spot. Riders #2 and #3 are on contingency, as USHJA allows only 30 entries per class. The SNHSA Board of Directors (BoD) will choose the most qualified horse/rider combinations for each division from the list of nominees. Please note that each horse/rider combination (or horse substitution) is required to have shown in a SNHSA show during the current season and a Board-approved equine professional who will oversee the pair at Nationals must be listed on the Declaration of Intent to be considered a nominee. The BoD has the final decision on the slate of nominees to be forwarded to USHJA and any horse or trainer substitution requires Board approval. Remember, if you are selected by SNHSA, you represent SNHSA.

SNHSA may offer sponsorships. If available, more information will be forthcoming.
