Event Overview
Solway College is pleased to be running our Annual Inter School Dressage competition again this year after three successful events since its inception in 2014. There are classes for junior (from lead rein right through to 13yrs) and senior riders (14 years and older). Teams consist of 3 or 4 riders each riding 2 tests, with the best 6 scores to count. Individual entries are also welcomed and compete in a separate division. Your entry fee pays for the day, excluding camping and yards. As we welcome riders from out of our district, and appreciate travel time, entries may be split into divisions depending on numbers. Entry numbers are restricted. Entries are accepted online at www.equestrianentries.co.nz. Entries will close Friday September 15th 2017 (NO LATE ENTRIES)

Entries will be accepted on a first come, first served basis. Organisers reserve the right to split classes in the interest of allowing plenty of travel time at the end of the day. If divisions are split, this will be a random process.
