The Sportpony Star Search is sponsored by Hayward Sportswear Ltd. The winner will be awarded the perpetual Morton Sportpony Challenge Cup, a silver keeper plate and presentation cooler.

The Northamerican Sportpony Registry offers a bonus of $2,500.00 Canadian funds if the Starsearch Grand Champion is a NASPR registered pony, owned by a NASPR member in good standing, and the sportpony is shown in its NASPR registered name. This prize will be paid out by the Royal. Hayward Sportswear Ltd., “the official supplier of equestrian clothing to the Royal Starsearch Sportpony Challenge,” will present a $100.00 certificate toward merchandise to the first place winners of the Royal Hunter and Dressage under saddle classes. Hayward Sportswear will also be presenting gift certificates at numerous qualifying shows throughout the year.
