MODA year end awards program

Year End Award Program Details
Year End Award Form
Year End Volunteer Hours Form
Annual awards are open to all MODA members in good standing. A rider and owner must be a MODA member at the time that a score is earned in order for it to count towards MODA Year End Awards. 
​
​Scores for Horse Performance and Rider Medal Awards are cumulative and need not be earned in one year, however it is the riders responsibility to include appropriate proof of completion.

NOTE: It is highly recommended that you retain all of your test score sheets.  
Scores are NOT tracked by MODA at all. Your tests are your proof of scores from year to year. Additionally, the feedback on your score sheets can often provide valuable information for clinics and ongoing education. Scores from recognized USDF/USEF shows can be obtained from the USDF Scorecheck website

General Rules (current as of October 2021)
  1. A fee of $10 for each horse entered in the Year End Awards Program is required at the time that the score forms are submitted. 
  2. A volunteer requirement of 8 hours total is required to participate in the awards program. 
  • Of those 8 hours, 4 hours minimum must be at/for a MODA hosted event (MODA Spring Show, MODA Classic, MODA Schooling Show) or via the additional opportunities at (clickable link!) midohiodressage.com/volunteer
  • Each additional required hour may be purchased at $10 per hour up to 4 hours. 
  • Volunteer hours are not accepted from MODA Year End Awards Qualifier Shows. 
Winners of previous year perpetual trophies MUST return the trophy to MODA before submitting scores for current year, or their score submissions will not be accepted.

show types:
Schooling Shows are usually local and smaller in size, hosted by local barns, clubs or a GMO (Group Member Organization of USDF). Schooling shows are a great way for gaining experience, without the financial commitment and paperwork of Recognized Shows.
  • In order to qualify for MODA Year End Awards, the show management must have applied for recognition. 
  • If a schooling show is recognized by MODA, there will be information on the prize list stating “MODA recognized,” or "MODA Year End Awards Qualifier," or that  "scores obtained will count towards MODA year end awards.”
  • A listing of MODA Year End Award Qualifiers can be found HERE. 
  • We encourage members of the dressage community to help out local shows by volunteering for them! However, volunteering at these shows do NOT count towards MODA Year End Awards Program.
  • For a list of opportunities to earn hours towards Year End Awards, GO HERE
  • Application for shows to apply for MODA Year End Award Qualifier status can be found here.

USEF/USDF recognized shows are licensed by the USEF (United States Equestrian Federation) and recognized by the USDF (United States Dressage Federation) and scores earned count toward national and regional year-end awards, and may qualify for regional or national championships.
  • MODA usually hosts two Recognized shows for you to compete in locally.​ The dates can be found on the MODA Calendar and information can be found here.
  • Scores earned at any USEF/USDF Recognized count towards this category. A listing of USEF/USDF Recognized shows for Region 2 can be found here.
