THE BADMINTON DRESSAGE
CHAMPIONSHIPS 2016
Foreword by Her Grace the Duchess of Beaufort
Our main sponsors are Albion Saddlemakers and Wadswick The Country Store
but we have several other supporters of the event (see sponsors
acknowledgement page). We are extremely grateful to our sponsors, new and
old, together with the many volunteers without whom this event could not take
place.
The Badminton Dressage Championships promotes the development of
dressage horses, ponies and riders of all ages and has been held, almost
without interruption, every year over two days in Badminton Park since 1989.
Classes this year include our usual Young Dressage Horse of the Future, Grass
Roots, Middle of the Road, High Performance, Pony Club and Riding Club Team
and individual competitions.
Competitors for the Young Dressage Horse of the Future, Grass Roots, Middle of
the Road and High Performance have to qualify at regional competitions
throughout the country from March to the end of June each year.
The Young Dressage Horse of the Future has produced some notable prize
winners including two 2012 Olympians, Uthopia and Valegro. Another winner
(2011 & 2012), who has progressed through the ranks is Woodlanders
Farouche.
The Young Dressage Horse of the Future is generously sponsored by
Albion Saddlemakers
The winner of the Young Dressage Horse receives a world record prize, together
with a saddle made by our sponsors, Albion Saddlemakers.
A training bursary will be awarded to the rider showing the greatest potential in
The Grass Roots Championship Class. The bursary to be paid to a trainer
approved by the organisers.
Badminton Dressage Championships is non profit making and donations are
given to various charities each year. Donations have been made to Oaksey
House (injured jockeys), Cancer Vaccine Institute and The Alzheimers Society.
I look forward to seeing you at Badminton this year and wish you every success
in your competitions.
