FPZVUSA withdraws from USDF All Breeds Program

Based on the low number of participants in Dressage within the FPZV USA, the FPZV USA Board decided to withdraw from the USDF All Breeds Program this year.

The fees to participate in this USDF program are very high and are not justifiable for such a low number of participants.

However, the FPZV USA does not want their members’ efforts to go unnoticed and wants to create its own award system which may not just be restricted to the USDF but would also include our competitors in the driving world (ADS).

It will require our membership’s participation! Competitors would have to submit a copy of their scores to the FPZV USA. FPZV would still follow the USDF Rules where x amount of scores have to be submitted per Level ridden or driven.

At the end of the show year, FPZV will send out awards and ribbons to the highest scoring Horse/Rider or Horse/Driver Combination for each level.

Rail classes will not be included, since those are covered by IFSHA and the USEF.

Best Regards,
