RDA 2019 Champions!
The RDA Online Dressage Championships are over for another year! Congratulations to everyone who qualified and took part.
Between August 2018 and March 2019 riders from across the country competed monthly to qualify for the sixth RDA Online Dressage Championships. The Online Championship Show took place during May with a record number of RDA Groups and riders taking part! We were absolutely delighted to have the Championship classes judged by Sarah Leitch, Jane Mcgarel-Groves, Kim Ratcliffe and Pat Watts.
