JUDGES TRAINING
The Utah 4-H Horse Council holds an annual judge's training typically in November that carefully reviews the rules of the program, takes an in-depth look at each event and how to judge it, and offers the opportunity to practice judging. Judges are also able to take the certification test on-site. While attending the training is not a requirement to be a Utah 4-H judge, it is highly recommended.
