A NOTE FOR RIDERS/OWNERS

While FADS shows promote a casual showing environment to benefit both horse and rider, show managers cannot be casual about payment of ride fees.  Many of the FADS shows are on the honor system wherein the entrant pays at the show.  Some of the shows allow late entries, space permitting, wherein the entrant pays at the show.  There is a standard in dressage shows: if a ride is scratched after the closing date, or if the rider is a no show, the entrant must pay the ride fee and there is no refund of the ride fee.  Therefore, when an entrant enters a FADS show, the entrant is agreeing to pay the ride fees if the rides are scratched after the closing date or in the case of no-shows.  Contact the show secretary/manager to make arrangements to mail the ride fees for scratched rides or no-shows.

It is also common courtesy to notify the show secretary that a ride is scratched, thereby preventing no-shows.


When you enter a show, ensure you enter the correct test(s)!  Check your FADS Online Entry Form before you submit it.  When ride times are posted, ensure the correct test(s) are listed - sometimes the show secretary makes mistakes and sometimes entrants make mistakes.  Report such mistakes to the show secretary immediately so corrections can be made, when possible, far before the show.  A lot of time and thought go into making a show schedule, which is based on requested tests and other criteria; last minute changes are very difficult.  Show day and riding down centerline are not the times to realize the wrong test was scheduled as corrections at those times are very disruptive to the show.  If there is an unreported entrant mistake, show management has the right to adhere to the original schedule (ride times and tests) so changes may not be possible, particularly on show day.

Thank you very much and enjoy the shows!
