The tests are designed to progressively develop the skills of athletes entering the competition stream. Please note that classification grades have been removed from the new para-dressage national tests, as athletes are not required to be classified to compete at Bronze competitions and are encouraged to compete at the highest level of their current riding ability to facilitate the development of effective riding skills.
