If there are 3 (or more) Juniors and 3 (or more) Seniors, then
the division will be divided into Junior and Senior divisions for the rider awards. Senior is 18 years and older from the
beginning of the calendar year.
Other awards: High point professional, high point nonprofessional, high point horse. The points are to
be accrued across all divisions in which a rider competes, including Green as Grass, Beginner Novice and Novice for professionals, even
though those don’t count in division awards.
Points are automatically tabulated. Points Chairman will obtain the results from all qualified Area V events and schooling shows and
determine the awards. Standings periodically will be updated online. Please contact the Points Chairman if an error is detected.
QUALIFICATIONS
To win a division rider award, a rider must be a member of the CTEA and have points from a minimum of two shows in that division. For a
horse to win a division award, the rider and owner of the horse must be a CTEA member and the horse must have accrued
points from a minimum of two shows in that division.
Professional riders may only earn Training or Preliminary awards as rider. But, a horse at any level may be ridden by a professional
for horse awards, providing the professional is a member of CTEA. A professional is anyone who earns $500 or more per year (or the equivalent)
riding and/or instructing.
POINTS CAN BE OBTAINED AT THE FOLLOWING:
Rated events are any USEA Horse Trial, Three-Day Event, Young
Rider Championship or Adult Team Championship for the competitive
year (Dec. 1 – Nov. 30).
Schooling shows include CTEA shows, Marcos Stables shows and schooling shows at places such
as Meadow Creek Park and Pine Hill.
Points from any show outside of Area V will be counted for year end awards if rider or horse participates
in at least 2 Area V horse trials. Results must be submitted to the Points Chairman with the required information signed by the
show secretary, organizer or technical delegate within 30 days of the show.
Participation points may be sent to the Points Chairman, but they also may be obtained through
the posted Web site ride times. Riders are encouraged to keep track of their own points; it is especially important to keep
track of points received at schooling shows since those are not always available on the Web or listed in the calendar. Deadline
for receipt of points information is Nov. 30.

SCORING POINTS
The CTEA uses the system adopted by Area V
for recognized shows, adding participation points to reward members
for the extra effort it takes to compete in recognized competitions.
Effective 2006, the CTEA will score championships as Area V
does: scoring them accordance with the points table for three-day
events. Details can be found at the Area V Web site, www.area5eventing.com,
click for forms, article titled Area V Current Policies, Guidelines
and Procedures. The CTEA has a modified system that is applied
to schooling competitions.
