Welcome to the the DC Area Horse Show Association!

Points & Rules

DCA follows VHSA & BHSA rules for classes and show venues. All DCA divisions are also VHSA and/or BHSA divisions.

Only one participating VHSA Associate show is sanctioned any weekend day from April through October within 50 miles of another.

Our points are the same value as VHSA, but are multiplied by the number of entries in each class with no additional points added for Champion & Reserve.

Points follow rider for greater member participation and flexibility. This is an easier and more economical method of tracking points to help us keep the costs low for members.

DCA shows are held in the Washington DC Area commuting areas in Virginia, Maryland, and West Virginia. DCA shows are required to be VHSA Associate shows and some are also BHSA shows.
