The Northern California Reined Cow Horse Association (NCRCHA) is a non-profit organization founded in 2000 in Red Bluff, California.
Our mission is to help promote the reined cow horse equine sport by providing members a place to show horses in herd work, reined work, fence work & boxing classes along with participating in educational seminars & riding clinics the association provides.
The NCRCHA encourages membership participation & fun. If you haven’t shown with us, check out what we have to offer in the range of classes & awards — everything from pros to beginners at an affordable price and with fun!
President's Note
It has been an exciting year filled with new faces and exciting new events. The club is growing and receiving positive support from our community. From our show management team, cattle handlers, volunteers, and board members we have been blessed with the best help
Please check out our sponsorship page. Our sponsors are an integral part of our ability to continue to offer great prizes and added money. We ask that you support and acknowledge them whenever possible. They take time and money out of their businesses and their personal lives to endorse our membership, and we greatly appreciate their support.
In 2024, we offered a “Cowboy Class”. It was extremely well received. We plan to build on these types of special events so that not only can our exhibitors enjoy them but that spectators can enjoy them also. This year we awarded four Hi-Point Youth buckles. Promoting our youth is very important and exciting for us. Our 2024 membership roster grew to 102 members. In addition to our membership, we have built a database of email addresses for over 300 horse enthusiasts in California, Oregon and Nevada. Our philosophy is to promote all things equestrian in our communities. We believe there is room for everyone and will continue to support other clubs and horse-related activities.
For 2025 we have some fun and exciting things in the works! The first event we are hosting is a NRCHA Judges Seminar in January at Rolling Hills Casino. Sign up by January 20, 2025 here for a discount of $25. Our show season begins on February 28th – the first of four shows in 2025. We have received so many requests for the “Cowboy Class” that we are bringing it back in 2025. In addition, we are going to offer a “Boxing Competition”, and we will continue to offer clinics throughout the year with top notch professionals.
