2022 judging season: demand program

This year, the organizational challenge of staffing the judging and inspection day for the 2022 season proved to be quite a challenge. But it worked out!

After requesting members of the judging corps to indicate the dates on which they could be available, this availability turned out to vary widely, from not available for next season to being available at most judging events.

A division was then made at the Regional and Central judging, and it soon became apparent that there was a shortage of available judges to man all the judging.

External advisors

At the judging events where not enough judges are available, an effort has been made to place good external advisors alongside an experienced NWPCS judge. Thanks to this construction, next season all events can take place! The external advisors all have a wealth of experience in judging horses / ponies and also a lot of affinity with our studbook.

In the meantime, five members of our studbook have begun the traditional jury training through the Dome Breeding, and two individuals are serving internships as prospective jurors.

Obviously, we hope for the future that through this route the jury corps will be further strengthened quantitatively and qualitatively.

Demand program

The use sections and sections C & D cannot enter at all inspections. By clicking on the judging program you will find, among other things, which judges and external advisors are judging where and which sections have been issued at a particular judging. Detailed protocols for the user sections are available on the website so that everyone knows what is required. You may participate in more than one class at one judging, with the exception of the young handlers, Leading Rein and First Ridden, where you can only register for one class. It is possible to enter a combination for two different inspections.

Changes next season

After approving the new bylaws and regulations, there are a few important changes for the upcoming season;

• A valid influenza vaccination is mandatory for participation (including mares accompanying their foals in a foal class). The applicable provisions for this can be found under Article 4.3 of the judging regulations.
• Bridle numbers are no longer provided by the organization, but must be arranged by the participants themselves and must be clearly visible attached to the handler's bridle or sleeve. Remember that these are attached on both sides! The departments will ensure that bridle numbers are also available for purchase on the day.
• At all Regional- and Central judging there will be a presentation service present. The cost of this service to present your pony professionally is € 15,00. If you want to use this service, you can register via Mijn.Welsh.nl. On the day itself you can pay the amount due at the secretariat and after payment you will receive a certificate to use this service. This service is calculated per bridle number, if you have several ponies that you want to bring, you will have to pay the indicated rate per pony.
• Ster mares no longer need to have a foal at foot at the Regional Inspection to qualify for the keur / crown predicate. They do have to have had a registered foal before. CAUTION: If you wish to be considered for this promotion and this concerns a foal not registered with the NWPCS, you must submit proof of a registered live foal from this mare to the studbook secretariat prior to the judging.
