The AQHA Level 1 West Championships got underway on Thursday, April 18th and is running through the 22nd in Las Vegas, NV. Rookie and Level 1 are the two levels of AQHA competition designed for beginner to minimally accomplished competitors, respectively. The Level 1 Championships were designed to celebrate the accomplishments of these riders and their horses in an environment that provides education and fun competition.
All Level 1, Rookie and Walk/Trot-eligible competitors are able to compete and earn championship honors at an AQHA Level 1 Championship. Qualifier invitations were not mailed out this year, instead eligible exhibitors can fill out an entry form at www.aqha.com/level1championships.
