Enties close tomorrow. Remember to check out Nelson Dressage NZ - Online Dressage Competition 2026 . We have our next rally coming up on Sunday the 7th June and if you wanted to enter the online dressage competition with Nelson Dressage you can book a spot at our rally where you can use the arena that will be set up with letters and we will provide someone to video (with your phone) the test. All you have to do is do your own online entry and then after the rally send in your video. We are going to have a standard rally running at the same time so you will likely have a few riders around making it feel a little like a real competition which is always great for our training! We have a couple of spaces left. If you would like to ride a test please PM or email Suzanne Halligan at [email protected]. All of the details are on the Nelson Dressage page, note entries close on the 24th May, but you have until the 14th June to get your video in. Priority given to current financial members. Ground fee still applies as normal.
Housekeeping
