The following is the list of rules for the Keystone Barrel Classic series to qualify for year end awards and ADDED MONEY FINALS to qualified riders.

QUALIFYING RULES FOR YEAR END AWARDS):

1.  Each rider must nominate themself and their horse, in each class (Open, Senior, Youth, Middle) to earn points to qualify for awards. 

2.  Each rider/horse must pay a $55.00 nomination fee per class (Open, Senior, Youth, Middle) in order to qualify for awards.

3.  Nominations must be paid at the first show each rider/horse attends.

2.  Points are awarded to each rider/horse team.

3.  No substitutions for rider on rider/horse team.  Substitution for horse is allowed with Veterinarian note.

4.  Points are awarded to the top 10 in each division of nominated rider/horse for each day.  Each day is a separate show.

5.  Finals show will be double-pointed for the top ten in each division.  For example, first place in the nominated horses will earn 20 points at the finals show, rather than 10.

6.  Awards will be given out on Saturday night, April 13th Show (for 2023 awards).  2024 awards date to be determined.  

7.  Previous years winners were dermined on the very last day due to our point system.

RULES FOR ADDED MONEY FINALS (October 14th & 15th): 

1.  Finals is open to all riders to run for regular added money for the weekend.  No points will be awarded for this payout.

2.  There is a sidepot for those riders who meet the attendance requirement.  Must ride in 10 of the 20 day shows, not including Finals, in order to qualify for the sidepot and points.  Each day of a show counts as a show day.

3.  You do not have to nominate your horse to qualify for the sidepot.   You only need to ride in 10 of the 20 day shows.

5.  For those riders who are riding for year end awards, points will be awarded only to the sidepot placings.  Placings will be based on the fastest time of the sidepot, so these may be different than the regular added money results where no points are awarded.

6.  No limit on the number of horses a rider can bring to the finals.
