Horsemanship and EducationThe IEA sponsors a national horsemanship test each year open to all riders. The test features a written exam, followed by a hands-on practicum with the national
judges. Facebook horsemanship trivia is offered throughout the year for practice, so stay tuned to the IEA WEST Facebook page!

As Zone 10 grows, the IEA will help keep the competitions manageable by introducing regions within the zone. Some zones have close to 2,000 riders
with 8 to 9 regions. Zone 10 is in its early growth with 20 team and no region splits.

The Competition Process
![Page 10: Zone 10](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062501/568163e1550346895dd53ccb/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
IEA Competitions begin in SeptemberEach team starts with a goal of accumulating enough team points to make their Zone Final horse show. Winning teams at Zone Finals then qualify to compete at the IEA National Finals.
![Page 11: Zone 10](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062501/568163e1550346895dd53ccb/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Teams consist of riders in four different high school levels and three different middle school levels. These range from Beginner (walk, trot, canter) to the Open division for the most advanced.
The Team
![Page 12: Zone 10](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062501/568163e1550346895dd53ccb/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Teams take turns hosting horse shows throughout the season. Since you are not required to own a horse to compete, teams take turns providing horses for their shows. The show season starts September 15 and ends in April at
the National Finals. Horse shows are one day shows that generally do not involve extensive travel.
The Shows
![Page 13: Zone 10](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062501/568163e1550346895dd53ccb/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Each horse show also offers individual classes so that students may compete as a team member and individually. A rider may make it all the way to the National Finals as an individual even if his/her team does not.
Individual, Team, or Both
