[NEWS] NEWS... Nedz Joins Forces With E-Riders N
edz, who have been supplying the equestrian industry with top quality chopped straw bedding for nearly two decades, are thrilled to be announced as the headline sponsors for
the 2020 E-Riders Online Dressage series.
Now in its third season, E-Riders is an online platform which enables riders to compete in dressage competitions against competitors from all around the world, without even having to leave their yard.
The dressage series offers a selection of classes and levels for everyone wanting to take part, and the entry is simple - choose your class, film your test, upload your video.
In the current climate your chance to qualify for the summer championship, held in August, has been extended throughout June and July. To be in with a chance of qualifying for the championships, you must gain three scores at the same level of 63% or above and you can only compete in one level at the championships. So even if you haven’t done one test yet, there is still time to get qualified.
With the uncertainty of when equestrian events will return, E-Riders is the perfect way to continue to compete safely and keep you and your horse occupied, whilst having fun!
Nedz will be sponsoring the summer finals where championships will be run for the below sections: Intro Juniors Intro Restricted Intro Open Prelim Juniors
Prelim Restricted Prelim Open Novice Restricted Novice Open Elementary Open Medium/Ad Med Open
The competitions are judged by a BD listed judge and you will receive individual feedback on your test, like at a normal dressage competition.
Each finalist at the Summer Championship will receive a stable plaque. There will be rosettes for 1st – 10th place and prizes for the Champions, Reserves and Reserve Reserve’s in each of the section. The prize bundles will include bedding vouchers, champion rugs, jackets and hoodies alongside sashes and trophies. Lisa Cooper from Nedz commented “We are really pleased to be able to support this brilliant Dressage series which offers some- thing fun and achievable for all levels of riders, especially at such a difficult time.”
Susannah Baughan director of E-Riders said “Wow the 3rd season of Championships already…I can’t quite believe it. I remember when we had around 40 entries per month, we have now hit over 1,000 centre lines being ridden each month! I am so glad to have Nedz on board sponsoring our Summer Championships this year – we have some brilliant prizes, rosettes and sashes up for grabs.”
