The Round-Up Horse Show showcases RED Arena Participants performances and competitions in different events:
In Hand Halter Course: Participants in the job training program showcase their skills leading and working horses through arena obstacles. Participants must demonstrate calm energy and focus to successfully lead the horses. This helps with horse training and is good physical activity for both the horse and participant. Arena Race: This is a competition is for riders of all ability levels to demonstrate their riding skills including core strength for sitting tall, balancing, reaching, visually tracking, communication with horse and team, motor planning & sequencing and/or reining/steering the horse. Place ribbons are awarded for each heat. Trail Obstacles: Riders are scored on riding skills and/or their tricks on horseback through various trail obstacle challenges. Thank you to our Trail Judges, the Veterinarians and Staff from Austin Equine Hospital RED Arena Drill Team: Riders who have progressed to independent riding display their skills in this team event. The team works together to learn and execute a riding pattern. Attention and focus are required to remember the pattern and keep safe spacing between the horses. Guest Arena Judges: Brian McCoy & Reagan Lowman Trail Judges: Austin Equine Veterinarians & Staff |
