Finals qualifications:

• NEW for MTPA FINALS in the 2024 season ONLY: mandatory 5 show attendance but 1 show of your 5 show minimum can be bought in at a cost of $350. The buy in show does NOT count towards CTCPA National Finals Event. The buy in show only counts towards being eligible to compete in the MTPA Finals. The Board of Directors will review this amendment annually.

CTCPA National Finals is a 6-show minimum

Point System Update:

The MTPA will follow the same point calculation system as CTCPA for the 2024 season. This keeps us inline with National point rankings and any awards or qualifications needed to compete on a National Level. There is also an ease of use for our show secretary. Historically, we would need to manually enter the points calculated, from a pdf to a spreadsheet, but by using the CTCPA Sortarena program, it will allow all results to be generated on a spreadsheet immediately, to create less human error.

Below is the point system used by CTCPA – for your reference.

Unsportsmanlike Behavior:

MTPA will follow Manitoba Horse Council code of conduct (Sport Manitoba). Offences will be documented and the MTPA Board of Director’s will determine a course of action.
