The American Horse Shows Association (AHSA) Equitation Medal was established in 1937 by the fourth ASHA president, Adrian Van Sinderen, as part of his strategy to connect horse people across the United States. In 1950, the Medal Final was fashioned into what has become today's competition format, with qualifying classes and Final to determine the overall winner. Riders ages 17 and under are eligible to compete in the Saddle Seat Medal Final by placing first or second in an official qualifying class during the specified qualification period.
Participants in the USEF Saddle Seat Medal Final, instructors, and family members are invited to attend the annual brunch where the riders will be recognized and given gifts supported by the McGinnis Family of Fishers, IN.
