4-H Horse Tests

Prior to the start of a 4-H horse show, members participate in a written test. The questions for the test come from specified chapters from these 4-H horse reference manuals:

• Grades 3-5: Horse & Horsemanship and Utah 4-H Horse Program Rulebook
• Grades 6-12: Horse & Horsemanship, Horse Science, and Utah 4-H Horse Program Rulebook.

Although youth participating in the show are required to complete a test, 4-H’ers who are not riding in the county show are also allowed to take the test. To be eligible to participate in the testing program, youth must be properly dressed (see Weber County 4-H Horse Council By-laws) and take the test at the announced time.
