This inaugural dressage competition will showcase the often-unseen talent of so many of our young athletes whose different abilities, physical, neuro-diverse, visible or invisible can be a barrier to accessing competition.<\/p>\n<p>This Pony Club initiative is centered around young people with either a physical limitation that may be outside classification, or with neuro-diverse or learning challenges who love riding but find few opportunities to compete. Our aim is to provide an open and inclusive pathway to bridge the gap between RDA and formal para-dressage pathways.<\/p>\n<p>The aim of this showcase competition, held at The Pony Club National Championships, is to support such athletes and their horse\/pony by providing a pathway to enjoy competitive dressage. The competition will be held on <strong>Wednesday 14th August at Offchurch Bury, Warwickshire<\/strong>. Competitors will choose between either a walk\/trot test or a walk\/trot\/canter test. The competition will take place on grass and the prize giving will be held with our Open Dressage Championship prize winners.<\/p>\n<p>For the chance to take part in this exciting showcase competition, we\u2019re asking riders aged up to 25 years (members or non-members), or their parents\/guardians, coaches, or influential adults in their life to <strong>apply to The Pony Club by 1st May 2024.<\/strong> A panel will then select the riders.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/email.pcuk.org\/c\/AQiSyBUQ6JIGGKSpjgQg3rVsE2XSOfsOA6k0sUL0rX3rso_anldexQS6D1O5gfbd1QA\"><strong>Apply Here<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/email.pcuk.org\/c\/AQiSyBUQ6JIGGKSpjgQg37VsENUZOCmzZIBTOMKu7IXVExvZIct8ZBEzIXvHmlSD_CU\"><strong>More Information<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n                                                            <div class=\"btn-repeater\">\r\n                                                                                                <a href=\"https:\/\/fndpc.entrymaster.online\/\" class=\"btn btn-default purple text-white\" target=\"_blank\">\r\n                                        Book and Event Today                                        <span class=\"arrow\">\r\n                                            <svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\"\r\n                                                 version=\"1.1\" id=\"Layer_1\" x=\"0px\" y=\"0px\" viewBox=\"0 0 69.32 46.51\"\r\n                                                 style=\"enable-background:new 0 0 69.32 46.51;\" xml:space=\"preserve\">\r\n                                                <path d=\"M43.79,2l-3.55,3.81l15.97,14.85H5.27c-1.44,0-2.6,1.16-2.6,2.6s1.16,2.6,2.6,2.6h50.97L40.25,40.7l3.55,3.81l22.86-21.25  L43.79,2z\"\r\n                                                      fill=\"white\"><\/path>\r\n                                            <\/svg>\r\n                                        <\/span>\r\n                                    <\/a>\r\n                                                                                    <\/div>\r\n                                                <\/div>\r\n        <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n<\/section>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> [&#8230;]<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"btn btn-secondary understrap-read-more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/branches.pcuk.org\/flintdenbigh\/news\/week-20th-february-24\/\">Read More&#8230;<span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> from Week 20th February &#8217;24<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":316,"template":"","tags":[],"class_list":["post-1360","news","type-news","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.8 -
