Youth Age Deadline

[Chynagurl8]

I was just wondering what the age cut off is for youth, is it under 18 by Dec 1st or Dec 31st? My 18th birthday is on Dec 8th so I hoping to squeak in another year of youth.

In AMHR it is your age by December 1st.

The deadline is Dec. 1st. of the previous year. So, my 18th birthday was Dec. 15th 2004, so in 2005 I was still a youth. Just make sure you check you membership card, AMHR accidently sent me a regular one instead of the youth one

I talked to AMHA the other day about this because my birthday is one Jan. 1st and i turned 18. I thought that i would be amateur but i was wrong. Your age on Dec. 31st determines age you will be for that show year. There rules in their rule book make it sound like since my birthday is on Jan. 1st that i would be considered 18 for the show year but i am not. I will be showing as a youth this year again. aubrey
