Built in

Every NWHA test this calculator carries.

Pick any test below to open the calculator with that sheet already built. Structure only, read from the published sheets: how many movements, which are doubles, the collective marks and the printed maximum. The wording of a test belongs to NWHA and is not reproduced here; you ride with the paper sheet in front of you. Every maximum below was checked against the sheet before it shipped.

Common questions

NWHA scoring, answered.

How many marks is an error of course under NWHA rules?

Under NWHA rules the first error of course costs 2 marks, the second a further 4, the third a further 8, and the fourth error means elimination. Marks come off the sheet total before the percentage is worked out.

That is the rule in the NWHA Versatility Rules, Sections 3.2.10 / 3.3.9 (2026), and the calculator applies it automatically. Rules get revised, so where your rule book or sheet differs, the sheet is right.

Which NWHA tests does the calculator include?

17 current tests, covering First, Fourth, Introductory, Second, Third and Training, each listed above with its movement count, coefficient movements, collective marks and the maximum printed on the sheet. Every maximum was checked against the published sheet before it shipped.
