Penniwells encourages riders to take part in competitions.
Those we aim to take part in are:
RDA Regional Dressage Qualifiers - We usually take between 6 - 11 riders to this every year. If they win or finish 2nd in their class with over 58% they qualify for the RDA National Championships.
RDA National Dressage Championships - We have qualified riders for this every year since 1996 and produced many National winners.
Royal Windsor Horse Show - They run an RDA fancy dress class sponsored by the Windsor Lions Club.
2009 finished 2nd with Lotti & Bethany Abbott dressaed as 'Hey Diddle Diddle'
The selfish Giant 2007 winners! Huge thanks go to Pam and Janet who got the costumes together for us. This is always a great day out!
Some of the other years! The Lion King in the centre was another of our winning years!
British Dressage Para Talent Spotting - Mari finished 3rd in her section 2009.
British Dressage Para Winter/spring/summer Series Dressage Qualifiers - This is a progression beyond RDA Dressage - The riders must have a good support network behind them along with commitment to the sport. These all qualify for their appropriate championships.
Millfield Junior International - 2007 was the first year we had riders selected to take part and represent Great Britain. See latest news for 2009 results.
Test riding days - the riders perform their test and then receive a 20mins training session from the judge.
