NCHA ANNOUNCES ADDED MONEY TO 2022 WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP FUTURITY PURSE
FORT WORTH – The National Cutting Horse Association (NCHA) is thrilled to announce the addition of $750,000 in added money to the upcoming 2022 NCHA Metallic Cat World Championship Futurity payout.
The $750,000 added will be divided between each of the divisions of the NCHA Metallic Cat World Championship Futurity, including the Open, Non-Pro, and Amateur classes.
“The finance committee approved the $750,000 to be added to the Futurity as requested by the Executive Director,” said Mark Senn, chairman of the NCHA Finance Committee. “We did this knowing we have adequate reserves for the NCHA. In 2022 we have also budgeted more funds for weekend and circuit shows than we did in 2021.”
Both weekend competition and aged event competition have shown strong entry numbers throughout the past couple of years, and especially strong numbers in the beginning of 2022. The NCHA Circuit Program has offered weekend level competitors the ability to compete for more titles as the program continues to grow.
“The sport of cutting is seeing tremendous growth across the board,” said Jay Winborn, NCHA executive director. “We are excited to support our own event with the addition of $750,000 to the Futurity, as well as continue to grow our funding and support given to our weekend competition through the re-emergence of NCHA Weekend and the NCHA Circuit Program.”
The NCHA Metallic Cat World Championship Futurity is tentatively scheduled for November 16 – December 10, 2022 in Fort Worth, Texas. For more information on the event, including entry forms, visit nchacutting.com/futurity.
