Southwest Dressage Championship 2008 Qualifying Percentages

Southwest Dressage Championship Qualifying Classes will be governed by the rules published in the current SWDC/Region 9 Omnibus and/or on web site www.swdressage.org.   Each rider must declare the division in which they are competing prior to each attempt at a qualifying ride at SWDC qualifying shows or for a score submitted under the rules (Amateur, Open, or Junior/Young Rider) and must provide proof of eligibility in the case of Amateur and Junior/Young Riders.  Adult Amateur and Junior/Young Riders may also qualify for the Open division.  Separate scores must be earned for each division.  At the Championships, they must enter each division separately although they will only ride once. There is no requirement of citizenship or horse/rider/owner registrations for SWDC, but each horse/rider pair must comply with USEF and competition rules.

Junior/Young Riders may qualify for Prix St Georges by earning requisite scores (2) in FEI Young Rider Team tests and/or FEI Young Rider Individual tests, for Fourth Level by earning requisite scores (2) in FEI Junior Team tests and/or FEI Junior Individual tests, or for Third Level by earning the requisite scores (2) in FEI Junior Preliminary test, and paying the required SWDC qualifying fee.

Competitors may check scores by checking the www.swdressage.org web site or by sending an email to Sarah Martin, SWDC Qualifying Secretary,  at qualifying@swdressage.org.  Qualifying scores must be reported within two weeks.  To permit recording, scores will not be available until at least three weeks after the competition.  For more information call Sarah Martin at 936 597-5439 or qualifying@swdressage.org.
