Welcome to the home of
the Western Australian Quarter Horse Association.
NEW! Important message from the club president
ABOUT US
We are a group of
dedicated horse lovers whose aims are to promote, foster and encourage the
development of the Australian Quarter Horse in the state of Western Australia.
We are affiliated with the Australian Quarter Horse Association and with
their assistance we aim to develop public interest in this wonderful breed
of horse Australia
wide.
We conduct shows,
competitions and exhibitions of Quarter Horses and Appendix Quarter Horses
at regular intervals during the year. The AQHA co-ordinates competitions
all over Australia
culminating with the huge National Championships held in Tamworth
each year. The shows involve many disciplines, such as Halter, Showmanship,
Western Pleasure, Trail, Reining, Cutting, Team Penning and English events
such as Hunter Under Saddle.
The AQHA also maintains
a studbook, which keeps a record of all registered Quarter Horses.
Pedigrees are available from the AQHA for a modest fee.
The Australian Quarter
Horse is a very versatile horse. Apart from events organised by the WAQHA,
Agricultural Societies and other breed societies, there are also other
areas where they excel, such as hacking, eventing, barrel racing,
campdrafting and polo-crosse.
On the following pages you will find information on where, when and how to go about showing
and getting the most out of your wonderful Australian Quarter Horse.
