Welcome
to the Florida
Dressage Circuit!
Over
20 years have gone by since the first
Florida Dressage Omnibus was
published in
1986 with five shows. The Florida Dressage
Circuit has
developed into a true heaven for
weekly dressage competitions, providing
enough choices for riders from Introductory
Level to Grand
Prix.

Helpful
Hints
- Riders,
trainers, owners, coaches and show committees have learned that
working together is fruitful for all parties involved. There are,
however, a few points to keep in mind when entry forms are mailed
to the show secretary: Mail a copy of your current USEF and
USDF Cards with your entry (Rider, Horse, Trainer, Owner,
Coach).
- Fill out
your entry form with a dark pen. Provide clear information when
asked for. Look at the policies of the show you enter; shows have
different policies in many ways.
- Make ample
(two sided) copies from the entry forms provided with the "Blue
Book". These entry forms are up to date for USEF and FEI
competitions. Other entry forms may not be accepted.
- Give sire
and dam information to support the recognition of the breeders of
your fine horses.
- Please be a
sport - each entry form must have ALL signatures (USEF
Requirement).
- Inform
yourself about refund policies. With your signature, you are
accepting all policies of the show you enter.
- Be prepared
to furnish the show office with all missing credentials and dues.
Many shows will not issue your bridle numbers until you have done
so. Your horse must wear numbers during the entire time it is on
the grounds and out of its stall (USEF Rule).
- If you have
any questions during the show, go to the appropriate person to
help you: show office to answer all questions regarding the show;
ring stewards to check your tack/bits and keep you informed about
warm-up and competition rings; technical delegate to interpret the
rules; and the show committee to follow up on rule
violations.

We
wish you a rewarding season.
