Hoi Emma,
Als je in de APHA show start dan mag je best andersmans paarden geshowt hebben zolang je alles zelf betaald heb en van hun geen betalingen in natura of gelden hiervoor gehad heb en of hun paarden hebt getraind tegen betalingen in natura of gelden.
De exacte bewoording: (p207 rulebook 2010)
A. QUALIFICATION. To qualify as an Amateur exhibitor with the APHA,
an individual must meet the following requirements.
1. Age. An individual is considered an Amateur exhibitor when he/she
is no longer eligible to show in the Youth program. For Amateur eligibility
purposes, the age of an individual as of January 1 will be
maintained throughout the calendar year.
2. Remuneration Restrictions.
a. For a period of 60 months (five years) prior to the date an application
for Amateur status is received in the APHA office, an
applicant may not have shown, ridden, judged, trained or assisted
in training a horse for remuneration, either directly or indirectly;
not received remuneration for instructing another
person in riding, driving or training a horse; nor received remuneration
for instructing another person in showing a horse in
competition.
b. An individual may not have shown, ridden, trained or assisted in
training of a horse for which the individual’s spouse, at the time,
accepted any formof remuneration, either directly or indirectly, for

for a period of 60 months (5 years) prior to the date an application
for Amateur status is received in the APHA office.
c. Entry Fees/Premium Money. An individual who has had the
entry fees paid or has received premium money would still be
eligible for the Amateur status, however, when the Amateur exhibits
a horse owned by anyone other than himself/herself or
those listed in AM-020.A., the payment of expenses - per diem,
lodging, transportation or mileage - shall be considered remuneration.
Payment of entry fees by someone other than the immediate
