 An
AMATEUR is any rider nineteen years old and older
on January 1 of the calendar year of the show who is no
longer eligible to show in NASMDA Youth classes, and who
has not shown, judged, trained or assisted in training a
mule, donkey or horse for remuneration, either directly
or indirectly, nor received compensation for instructing
another person in riding, driving, training or showing a
mule, donkey or horse in competition for the previous
five calendar years. An amateur exhibitor may not show,
train or assist in the training of a mule or donkey for
which their spouse is accepting any form of
remuneration, either directly or indirectly for
training, assisting in the training or showing of said
mule. Note: You must possess a
NASMDA Amateur Card to show in an Amateur Class, Novice
Amateur Class and Silver Amateur Class at a NASMDA Sanctioned Show. Amateur mules must be owned by the Amateur, the Amateur's immediate family or have a completed lease on file. See Section 147 D of the NASMDA rulebook. |

A YOUTH is defined as any rider who is eighteen
years or younger on January 1 of the calendar year of
the show. A youth must be in control of the animal
he/she is handling at all times. The judge should and
will excuse any entry that is not in control of their
mule/donkey. No youth may show a jack in any event.
