Awards

Dressage Achievement Awards

Achievement awards are earned by horse and rider combinations who, by five consistent high percentage scores, demonstrate excellence at OVCTA shows. Awards are given at each level, with scores as follows:

• USDF Intro Level A and B: 5 scores of 62% or higher.
• Training Level 1 and 2: 5 scores of 61% or higher.
• Training Level 3 and 4: 5 scores of 61% or higher.
• First Level or above: 5 scores of 60% or higher from the same USEF level.

Scores must be earned at OVCTA shows, and must be earned in dressage classes (not earned as part of Combined Training or Event). Horse and rider combinations may only receive an achievement award ONCE at each level. Scores must be earned in one show season.

"A horse who puts on a show in the dressage ring and strives to get through cross country and only knocks down one rail in stadium is more deserving of a break when he gets home than the horse who got first... only because he's worked harder for that trip around the course."
