USEF RULES


Dressage in the United States has rules governed by US Equestrian (USEF).  Although the rules are written for USEF licensed / USDF recognized shows, most schooling shows follow the rules (although there are exceptions - if you have a question, ask the show manager or secretary).  Dressage riders should be familiar with the rules.

USEF has General Rules that apply to all equestrian sports that fall under the USEF; USEF also has rules specific to dressage (the DR rules).  The link below will get you to these rules.

USEF Complete Rule Book (web link to all USEF rules on USEF web site) - Click here
USEF Rules App (iOS and Android app for smartphones and tablets) - Click here


The USEF rules change frequently; therefore, if you are looking up a rule, always refer to the web site.
CONTACT US:
  • If you want to add your show to the FADS Show List, please see the INFORMATION FOR FARMS tab. 
  • If you have a question about a specific show and/or want to volunteer at a specific show, please contact the show manager or show secretary directly (see SHOWS tab(s)). 
  • For other inquiries, please email LeslieRaulin@gmail.com.
DISCLAIMER:  FADS is not an organization or club and it has no money; it is simply a web site that lists casual dressage schooling shows in the Frederick, MD, area.  All shows on the FADS Show List are the responsibility of the sponsoring farm / show manager / show secretary.  Therefore, FADS, the FADS Webmaster, and the FADS Advisers are not liable for any aspect of any shows on the FADS Show List.
