For four days in October horses and riders from most Australian States will go head to head with the aim to take home a National Champion Trophy and Title.
The Saddleworld Australian Dressage Championships will take place at the Sydney International
Equestrian Centre from Thursday, 23 October through to Sunday, 26 October 2014.
Para Equestrian competitions start a day earlier on Wednesday, 22 October culminating in the
Freestyle competitions on Saturday.
Like all National Championships, Interstate rivalry is evident especially in the Teams Competitions. Each State selects horse and rider combinations to represent their State across a range of nominated Equestrian Australia and FEI level competitions and the competition does seem like a duel at times when State pride is on the line….
Strong Teams are expected from Queensland, Victoria and New South Wales whilst the States that haven’t enough athletes group together to make up a combined Team – it only takes one star rider from the smaller states to shift the balance back towards the combined team.
The Saddleworld Australian Dressage Championships gives all dressage fans and riders the
opportunity to be part of the action at our National titles and at the same time support their
favourite horse and rider. Our high profile riders have just one aim at this time of the year – the title of National Champion.
For more information on the Championships including on-line ticket bookings for the popular
Saturday can be found on the website.
The Top Spot Marquee is the place to be if you want to enjoy the event in style and you can book on line.
A sumptuous Buffet is offered in the Top Spot Marquee on Saturday evening. A perfect opportunity to gather your dressage friends and book a table for a pre Christmas get together.
