Nominations are always by www.nominate.com.au/EquestDn/Nominate.aspx searching the Working Equitation events in Qld is the quickest way to find all open events.
TRAINING DAYS: This is individual practice. There is usually an experienced person organised to show those new to the sport the ropes and share some rules of various obstacles. We are a very friendly group and there is never a shortage of someone to ask if you are unsure about anything.
SCHOOLING SHOW DAYS: These are typically an hour to familiarise your horse with the courses and then do a dressage test and a full course on style, both judged with feedback. These are friendly low key days to start training for having a go in official competitions. Be warned these days are FUN and very addictive.
Assisting at events
Every rider contributes to making training and event days possible.
Our training days, or any days for that matter, are only possible when everyone helps. Whilst it may work to miss out helping once, the impact is that those left to carry the load burn out and leave. The impact is may not be realised on the day however be sure, you do matter and make a difference, please join us as part of a community that plays and stays together.
Help is particularly needed with:
Setup - usually an 45-60 min before start time
Packup - After the training is finished, we often finish a little early
You would only do setup OR packup depending on the day you attended
First Aid - You must hold a current First Aid certificate. We require two people to run the day and you can ride also as long as you are prepared to have someone else hold your horse if you need to get off and your horse is safe for someone else to hold.
