About NBHA
The
National Barrel Horse Association, headquartered in Augusta, Georgia, is the
largest barrel racing organization in the world. In 1992, the NBHA
revolutionized the barrel racing industry by pioneering the divisional format,
which allows riders of all skill levels a chance to win money and prizes in
barrel racing competition.
NBHA has over 23,000 members of all ages across the United States and affiliates
in five countries: Canada, Italy, France, Panama and the Netherlands. Find out
more about barrel racing's international presence at
NBHA.com/ibhf.
NBHA official home office events to date have paid out $8,038,985.00. Added
money is approaching $2 million.
Divisional barrel racing, using the 4D format, is the heart of NBHA. Divisional
barrel racing gives ALL competitors - from beginners to professionals, from
youth to seniors - a chance to compete, learn and succeed in barrel racing. The
Divisional format encourages riders to improve their skills and work toward the
higher Divisions, while still having a chance to be competitive. To learn more
about how Divisional format barrel racing works, visit our
Frequently Asked Questions.
NBHA Members compete at District, State, National and World Championship
levels. Each state is divided into competition Districts where members compete
for money and prizes at a local level. Discover which one of the NBHA's more
than 300 Districts you can compete in at www.nbha.com/overview/comp_dist.shtml.
Most states hold
State Championship Shows; find out if your state does at
http://nbha.com/shows/state/. The NBHA National Office currently produces
seven
National Shows annually throughout the country. Check out our
National Shows page for dates and locations.
The ultimate goal of NBHA competition is to qualify for the prestigious NBHA
World Championships: The Youth & Teen World Championships, held the first week
of August, and the Open & Senior World Championships are held in November
annually.
NBHA enjoys sponsorship from several companies that offer special programs -
Incentives, discounts, merchandise and more - to NBHA Members. Visit the
