Promoting Western lifestyle and ranching heritage worldwide.
Our mission is to preserve the integrity of all-breed ranch horse events while promoting the Western lifestyle and ranching heritage worldwide.
Your IRHA membership helps support the preservation of the Western lifestyle and ranching heritage worldwide. Memberships are available for Open, Non-Pro and Youth.
For 2025, membership fees are not required for international members.
The IRHA Stallion Incentive Program rewards exhibitors, nominators and breeders of participating horses excelling in IRHA and Ranch Horse Triple Crown Challenge events. In 2024, more than $90,000 in stallion incentives was awarded at the IRHA Ranch Horse Futurity (Open/Non-Pro) and the Ranch Horse Triple Crown Challenge (Open/Non-Pro).
