Example text
You must check with the organisers (or people selling tickets for the classes) to see if it’s allowed before you ride in the rings. It is very good to ride in the ring as it will let your horse get used to the atmosphere and any scary decorations (such as flags) that may be around. Once the first class has started you won’t be allowed in the ring except when competing. This can make warming up between classes difficult at small grounds, but there is usually a small area to ride in. These areas can get very busy, so it is best to have a good ride early in the morning so that your horse will only need a little warm-up before each class.
At pony club competitions the gear checker also checks the safety of the equipment. If your equipment is not correct you will be asked to change it and report for another gear check prior to doing your test. Once you have passed your gear check, your name will be ticked off a list. You should report for a gear check before each test, although the gear checker may not inspect you the second time. At some competitions (usually pony club and riding club) a sticker may be placed on the back of your saddle, boot or helmet to show you have passed the gear check.
Programs and entries Entries for dressage competitions must be sent prior to the competition. Most associations (EFA, pony club, riding club) have a dressage competition handbook or calendar on their website. Buy a handbook or download it from the website, so that you can see all the association competitions for the year. Schools competitions and associate competitions are not always included in a handbook. They may be advertised in rural newspapers or through the local schools, pony/riding clubs and saddlery stores.
