A judge marks the test. They give you a mark out of ten for how well you carry out each instruction. At the end of the test the marks are added up and the winner is the horse and rider with the highest score.<\/p>\n<p>Dressage instruction is available at all our general rallies, as well as at standalone dressage rallies and team training.<\/p>\n<h3>Dressage competitions<\/h3>\n<p>The Pony Club holds the Barrier Spring Festival Dressage, with qualifiers (\u2018first round\u2019 competitions) running through the Autumn up to the Regional competitions in early March. Individuals go through from the regional \u2018second rounds\u2019 to the National Championships in April.<\/p>\n<p>Each Area also holds a summer dressage qualifier with the following levels of competition:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Preliminary PC70 (Regional Championships)<\/li>\n<li>Grassroots PC80 (Regional Championships)<\/li>\n<li>Novice<\/li>\n<li>Open Novice<\/li>\n<li>Intermediate<\/li>\n<li>Open<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The top teams and individuals at the Area Summer Qualifier will qualify for either the National Pony Club Championships (Novice, Open Novice, Intermediate, Open) or the Regional Pony Club Championships (PC70, PC80). Details of eligibility and qualification requirements can be found in the Pony Club Dressage Rulebook.<\/p>\n<p>If you are interested in competing for the branch in dressage please contact the Branch&#8217;s dressage organiser and make sure you&#8217;re attending dressage rallies and training.<\/p>\n                                                            <div class=\"btn-repeater\">\r\n
