Definition of MRHA Green Rookie & NRRHA Green Rider, and NRRHA Green Horse
MRHA Green Rookie – Subject to the general conditions, this class is for beginning
Non Pro reiners who have not earned money in reining events. If money is
earned in other classes after their initial entry in the program, the rider will not
be disqualified from the class and will be allowed to remain in the class until
they win 50 points. Points are cumulative from one year to the next. The class
will use a modified NRHA pattern so there are no lead changes and rider may
show one or two handed in any legal bit or hackamore. The class will run on a
point system and when a rider earns 50 points, they will graduate out of the
class and earn their Green Reiner belt buckle to be awarded at the annual awards
banquet. The number of horses in the class, exclusive of scratches, will
determine the number of points available for each place. Point system example:
six horses in class – first place receives 6 points, second place 5 points, etc.
Rider will also receive ½ point for every horse they place above. No points are
awarded for zero score or “no scores”. Rider may earn points on one or
multiple horses. The entry fees will go towards the purchase of the belt buckles
and will not be paid out.
It is the responsibility of the owner and/or rider to be aware of earnings for entry
in Rookie and Novice Horse classes, as well as Limited and Intermediate
divisions of the Open and Non Pro classes. If it is found that an entrant was not
eligible for a class any prize money will be forfeited.
NRRHA Green Horse: Horse not earning more than $250.00 Lifetime earnings.
NRRHA Green Rider: Rider not earning more than $150.00 Lifetime earnings.
