Location: On My Horse! | From what I heard, she wasn't a member for a full year. Apparently she got her membership in May of 2017, but she did attend the 3 barrels races as required. Keep in mind, this is hear say. I do not know the entire story. *If* this is true, I don't agree with it..She paid the membership and entered 3 places.. |

I would think there are too many entries too check that everyone has complied with the rules. I worked at 300+ entry show once and we got blasted because the girl who ran the winning time only entered the adult class and not the open. All forms are clearly labeled and we assume when we get an entry they have read them and are entering the class they want. We kept hearing why we did not tell her she was entering the wrong class? The rules are posted and it is the "honor system" when you enter. That said, the NBHA rules state must enter 3 shows in your "designated district". I wonder if she entered in different districts, she may have thought you just needed 3 shows in any district. It is a shame if that is the reason, sounds like it could very easily be an honest mistake. |

| To everyone concerning the nbha state situation. I just want to verify that it was a simple mistake. I should have payed better attention to my membership. And if you know me I would never do anything to cheat the nbha system or rules. And everyone that is concerned about the money you lost out on I am sorry..but don't think you're the only one. And Im sad to hear that you're taking it upon yourself to msg me and be mad about it. I honestly love to Barrel race for the fun of the sport. I have NEVER been one to complain about losing out on money. I run my horse to be a better team. I love the feeling of my horse running under me and the trust I have for him and he has for me. There is nothing in this world I love more then my horse. And If someone thinks I would drug my horse OBVIOUSLY has no idea who I am. Not every horse has to be drugged to be ran. My horse has a heart that's gives me 150% of everything he has. I was there to run my horse not win money.. I'm gunna end this by saying I came and I ran. My horse still ran a 14.228 and that means more to me then a million dollars. I simply made a mistake. I am human! Thank you to everyone who has had my back and msged me. I really appreciate every one of you! ?? |

Sounds like an honest mistake and I for one appreciate her being honest. I hate she is being harassed. |

Isn't it awful people are messaging her with nasty mad comments because it changed the results? That is the downside of our internet age and an example of how it is changing our society for the worse. Mistakes happen, she acknowledged it, apologized, move on! |

The people that wouldn't have received any money/prizes if no one caught the mistake should be standing up for her. They should be thanking every one who did the right thing in correcting the mistake. |

| This girl sounds like a class act in her response.
And this shows yet another reason why I have no/will not join the NBHA. They want/encourage you to join (enforced by non-member fees) at any time during the year (but they do offer a pro-rated membership) and yet if you attend the required number of show, you cannot go to the State Finals because you only had your card 10 months instead of 12 ??
But hey, that's me. If I want to go, I'll pay the non-member fees despite the glares at the entry booth. |

| She had to be a member of a district even if it was 00. Every district has a director. I would think it would be the district director who monitors when each member joins and if they are eligible to run at the state show not really the person enterin or the state show director. Our district director puts out a list of who is eligible for the state show. Sounds like and honest mistake on the exhibitor's part. |

Location: On My Horse! | I'm trying to upload a screen shot that will clarify this. Hopefully it will post. I do believe it was an honest mistake.
Ok, I can't get the screen shot to upload. Basically, she is a member of 00, she did have a valid memebership at the time she submitted her entry fees for the State show, She did enter 3 NBHA's. HOWEVER, at one of those shows, I'm assuming the last one, her membership expired. Therefore, she only attended 2, not 3. Evidently, someone has been keeping up with her and wrote an anonymous email AFTER she won the 2nd go, but not when she hit a barrel in the first go..OR when they saw she was entered to begin with.
Once the investigation began, member records were contacted to verify the allegation, which proved the membership had lapsed during one of those qualifying shows.

We don't have NBHA in my area anymore but when we did our director did not provide us a list for eligibility for state, it was up to the individual to know. |

When your membership is coming up due you get a notice in the mail that its time to renew your membership, I always get a reminder a month are 2 befor my membership expires so that way you wont lose any points.. I havent ran at a NBHA show in years but I do keep my membership so if I ever decided to start up again I'm ok and I like getting my Barrelhorsenews every month, lol..
To me its not up to the director to keep up with everybodys membership it's the member that needs to pay attention, all you have to do is look on your card to see when your membership is due. My director would do the same thing thou, she'll let you know befor it expires that you need to renew if you wanted to keep your points..She was just a sweet lady, but that was when I lived in the Valley she was always on top of things, but I noticed when I moved and went to a different dis. I noticed all directors were not as sweet, lol so got to watch out for yourself. So you should be getting a reminder in the mail when your membership is due |

Location: on the fine line between insanity and geniusness | Blast away, but NBHA has become a joke! Why pay a membership and deal with all their internal drama when you can just go to big added money barrel races elsewhere that they don't sanction? They don't pay worth a crap around here. Maybe it's because in Texas we have so many options for added money shows that they have nothing to do with?! But the Texas state NBHA finals very seldom draws many. We went to an open 5,000 added yesterday with 350 head! I haven't had an NBHA memebweship in years for that reason. BBR would be my choice if I wanted to join something and qualify for a finals- better prizes, more money and much less drama. |

Location: On My Horse! | Maybe they should just mirror the PRCA. Every membership is December 1. Just joined November 1, looks like your membership is only good for a month. It would just help simplify stuff.
I believe this was just an oversight, for everyone. Mrs. Linda did do her best to rectify this by paying out those in the 2nd go. Meaning those who won under Tristen and then those who won under the new time. |

Location: Cocoa, Florida | Coming from someone who has hit the jackpot at the Florida state show, the only reason I run is because I know each year we get close to 900 sometimes more runners And the payout is usually huge. I've won over $1000 and qualified for finals many times, it's a fun show and a great venue (the silver Spurs indoor air conditioned arena). I run my 3 shows just so I can go each year.
The DQ-ed runner has not had her membership since last spring I believe 2016, therefor she even ran last year not being a member. Whether it was a mistake or not, like everyone else has said NBHA shouldn't be responsible for renewing your membership, they send you a reminder, you have a 30 day grace period to renew it. It's like anything else in life - does the tax, tag and title office badger you to renew your stuff? No, they remind you and it's your responsibility or you will pay for the consequences. Simple as that. |

| When we enter our state show we have to also submit a form with our entry listing the shows that we competed in.
Our director is also good about reminding people at the shows about renewing their membership. But...our state is no where as big as Florida so I could see where this could be hard to manage. |
