The Four Divisions
The National Belgian Futurity will be shown each year in four divisions -- Weanling, Yearling, Two Year-Old, and Two Year-Old Cart Class.

What Foals are Eligible
All foals shown must be the produce of stallions and mares that are nominated in the National Belgian Futurity and registered with the Belgian Draft Horse Corporation. 

How to Nominate the Sire
To nominate a stallion in the Futurity it is necessary:
(1) That the stallion be registered with the Belgian Draft Horse Corporation.

(2) That a fee of $50.00 be paid to the Futurity on or before April 15th of the year the foal is nominated.  A late fee of $75.00 is accepted from April 16th to June 15th of that year.
This annual nomination is the Stallion Owner's responsibility.  No nominations accepted after June 15th.

How to Nominate the Dam
To nominate a Dam in the Futurity it is necessary:
(1) That the dam be registered with the Belgian Draft Horse Corporation.
