The Western Cow Horse Association, formed in
1986, is an all breeds organization dedicated to the continuing development and growth of the Working Cow Horse sport. To this end, we offer opportunity for riders and horses to further their education and gain experience through various activities.
We sponsor horse shows offering a wide variety of classes to suit all levels of riders and horses. These include Working Cow Horse classes, Reining classes, and nonjudged schooling classes. To further encourage participation, we also offer Clinics at a reasonable cost.
The ultimate goal of all WCHA activities is to establish a degree of proficiency that allows horses and riders to progress to more advanced levels of competition.
If you are interested in learning how to show a Working Cow Horse or Reiner; if you need to practice showing a Working Cow Horse or Reiner in a low pressure situation; or, if your Working Cow Horse or Reiner can benefit from schooling show experiences, Western Cow Horse Association provides these opportunities.
