| NBHA RULEBOOK
The purpose of the National Barrel Horse Association is to provide Barrel Racers with an international organization that will promote the sport of barrel racing and its growth.
Our goals are to increase the number of participants, improve the quality of shows and enhance the image of barrel racing.
These rules have been adopted to address the needs of NBHA members, promote fairness, eliminate confusion, and assist show organizers.
INTRODUCTION
These Rules cannot cover all possible situations that may arise during a show, nor can they regulate all administrative questions. Where cases are not precisely regulated by an Rule, it should be possible to reach a reasonable decision by looking at the Rule book and the Directors Handbook. The Rules assume that NBHA Directors, Show Management and Headquarters staff have the necessary competence, sound judgement and absolute objectivity. Too detailed a rule might deprive the official of his/her freedom of judgement and thus prevent him/her from finding the solution to a problem dictated by fairness, logic and special factors.
