    The NRHA show representative has defined responsibilities as outlined in the NRHA Handbook, Show Rules and Regulations, Show Approval. To help you better understand these duties, NRHA has listed certain do’s and don’ts for our show representatives. Reading this list does NOT replace reading the rulebook!
  • An NRHA Show Representative MUST:

    • A show representative must be an NRHA General, Non Pro, or Professionals member in good standing for at least one full calendar year prior to an event. The Board recommends that the representative be a current NRHA judge or an official NRHA steward.
    • Maintain professional conduct and attire during show hours.
    • Submit any protests to the NRHA Office within 15 days of the actual incident, and/or within 15 days of having gained knowledge of the incident. Protests must be filed separate from the representative report

    • Be on the grounds at all times during the NRHA approved portion of the event or appoint an alternate representative for any time that you are absent from the show grounds.
    • Keep record of how many hours each judge actually judges. (Doesn’t include breaks.)
    • Report any abuse observed on the show grounds; the judge(s) may ask the show representative to include a report on abuse on the show rep form. Any member or person in attendance may request that an incident of abuse be reported on the show rep form.
    • Communicate to the judges when requested to do so by show management or exhibitors; some judgment regarding appropriate communication needs to be exercised.
    • Report unprofessional conduct (in writing to be included in the show rep report); including but not limited to, drunkenness, foul language, or unsportsmanlike conduct.
    • In the event of an exhibitor problem or crisis, discuss the situation with the judge(s) to determine and communicate a solution.
    • If abuse or unsportsmanlike conduct is reported, include name(s) of individual(s) involved in the alleged incident along with all witnesses. Make sure to write detailed notes explaining the situation.

    An NRHA Show Representative MUST NOT:

    • Advise judges in judging skills, techniques, etc.
    • Suggest any opinion(s) as to judging any performance. Remember the judge(s) is/are the hired official(s) and the final word on NRHA rules of judging. No person should try to assume a coaching position over the judge(s).
    • Offer opinion(s) to exhibitors or show management – only give facts.
    • Act on behalf of NRHA or its Board of Directors as a decision maker; or represent yourself to an antagonistic party as representing Board opinion.
