Winter Woolies Wrap-Up

5 JUNE 2001

The weather man was very kind and gave us the perfect day for dressage - clear skies and temperatures around 21º.

This competition was extremely well subscribed, with entries being closed several days before the closing date and a lengthy reserve list being established. But, with several scratchings and a few kind people giving up a ride or two, nearly everyone managed to ride a test. Apologies to those few who missed out.

The day ran quite smoothly with scores and results up in record time, thanks to Jennifer Laing and Michelle Geddes, and using Bello Brenda's trusty software for the first time at a T'Shirt competition. 

Thanks to our five judges : Wendy Bruszewski, Ingrid Whelan,
Carolie Mitchell, Chris Duver and Sue Burke. Thanks also to all the pencillers and scorers, and it goes without saying that the canteen ladies Audrey and Chris and their girls put on the usual great feed, despite of bad luck with their mounts and the disappointment having to scratch.

Dressage Summer Swelters Wrap Up

20 FEBRUARY 2011

Well, Summer Swelters it certainly was!

We scored what felt like the hottest day of the year for the dressage competition.  Thanks to our valiant judges, pencillers and scorers who withstood the heat all day without complaint (well not too much...). Thanks also to the Trewins and Gardiners for the canteen, which was very busy with a huge run on icy poles!

Once again we had a terrific turnout, with more than expected entries, making it a very long hot day.

Riders please be aware that in future, the number of tests for T'Shirt/Associate competitions will be capped at around 105 tests for the day. If your entry arrives from the following day after that number has been reached, you will be placed on a waiting list, and may get a ride dependant on scratchings. As we have been receiving about 170 tests the last few competions, you will see your entry will need to arrive fairly early to get in. NO LATE OR PHONE ENTRIES will be accepted in future at all, it is just too hard to find last minute judges.

It is on the onus of the competitor to know the rules for dressage. It is up to you to know the rules, and up to our officials to try and ensure they are enforced so it is fair to everyone.The rules can be downloaded from the EA website HERE
Our officials and judges are volunteers, and please treat them with the respect they deserve. No rudeness or abuse will be tolerated. We have a reputation as a relaxed and fun club, and wish to keep it that way.

Next Competition

Our next Associate dressage day will be held in June. We are thinking seriously of running freestyles and/or pas de deux, but we will need to have at least 15 entries to make it worthwhile setting up the music etc. Please This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it to email your expression of interest to Kathy ASAP so we can decided whether to run it or not. We need to know approximate level (prelim upwards) freestyle or pas de deux. If we don't hear from anyone, we will assume no-one wants it. You will probably need this long to get it organised!

It will also be a fundraiser for Dale Johnston and his quest for the London Paralympics, a perpetual trophy in his name will be awarded, the exact details are still to be decided.
