Please send your draft schedule (compulsory) and draft catalogues (if desired) to SSA Show Affiliations for approval prior to printing.

Shows affiliating to the Side Saddle Association (SSA), whose H&S and Insurance Policies, or the Venue’s, require Safety Hats to be worn at all times should be aware that should they decide to waive the ruling for SSA classes, they do so at their own risk and the SSA cannot be held responsible for this decision. The name of your chosen judge MUST BE INCLUDED at time of affiliating. As with most societies, our members are restricted with certain judges.
