The Horse Judging Contest is designed to teach participants good conformation (structural correctness, balance, and muscling), breed character, and performance ideals in different breeds of horses. Additionally, the Horse Judging contest allows participants to learn how to evaluate horses based on knowledge and fact, make a decision, and defend it. The contest also teaches participants horsemanship terms that can be used in a logical, systematic way to defend placings and helps participants gain confidence in their ability and use of the English language by giving oral reasons to a judge while learning to speak clearly, decisively, and convincingly through the use of oral reasons. Overall, Horse Judging incorporates a young person’s passion for horses into learning valuable life skills, like careful reasoning, confidence in conviction, and astute observation.
Congratulations to all of these young ladies, and to Coaches Mary Dickerson, Laura Dickerson, and Ruthy Vorder Bruegge, on their exceptional performances, hard work, and great success this past weekend!
