An Organising Branch may offer additional Classes, but these Classes will not form a part of the League Competition. Branches wishing to host a league competition should send details and dates to the Area Rep so they may be advertised and included in the series. Branches must publish all results on Pony Club Results for the event to be part of the League.
Classes must be run as per The Pony Club Dressage Rule Book 2025. Commanders are allowed for all Tests except those that are not permitted in The Area Spring Festival Qualifying Classes.
At each competition the result will be decided upon the total dressage score. The combination, horse and rider, with the highest percentage score being the winner. In the event of equality, the highest collective marks will be the deciding factor. In the event of equality of points within the League, the competitor with the highest overall percentage will be deemed the winner.
Riders may ride more than one horse at any or the same level as each horse/rider combination will be awarded points separately. Please note you must enter each event using the same name for your horse/pony at every competition you attend, otherwise your points will go to each horse name you ride.
Points will be awarded solely to the finishing place within Area 6 entries. For example, should an Area 6 Member finish 2nd to a non-Area 6 member, the Area 6 member would receive the points for first place. This will also be the case in mixed sections of Pony Club and Non-Pony Club Members.
Points will be awarded regardless of the number of entries in a class.
Combination of Horse and Rider must have competed in three or more participating League Competitions to be included in the full and final results at the end of the series in April 2026.
In the Walk and Trot Test, there will either be a separate section for Leading Rein Riders or if run under one section then two sets of points will be awarded, one set to Leading Rein and one set to Non Lead Rein.
There will be no double points awarded this year for The Area Spring Festival Qualifying Classes.
Points will be awarded as follows –
1st – 10
2nd – 8
3rd – 6
4th – 4
5th – 3
6th – 2
Unplaced completion – 1
At the end of the season a presentation will be made with rosettes to the top six finishers in each class with prizes from 1st to 3rd.
The Area Branch League will be determined by the addition of all the points from individuals representing their branch across all six tests.
Please note further dates and competitions may be added and will be advertised on this website and via The Area 6 Facebook Page
