Equestrian Australia Dressage Performance Medals

The 2026 Australian Dressage Performance Gold Medals are back.

Since 2010, these medals have recognised the combinations who deliver consistently — not just on one good day. Three qualifying performances at your level, at least one of them from a State Championship, the Australian Dressage Championships or a CDI.

The benchmarks:

• Novice / Elementary — 73%+
• Medium / Advanced / Junior — 70%+
• Small, medium and big tour — 70%+

Qualifying period: 7 September 2024 – 7 September 2026. Australian riders who are current financial EA members are eligible. Freestyle, HC and Young Horse results don't count.

Medals will be presented at the 2026 Australian Dressage Championships.

Nominations close COB Wednesday 9 September 2026.
