How does the award system work?
The awards are based on the average of the best five overall official competitive performances (percentages, not placing) achieved at a particular level during the qualifying period at events held in NSW and the ACT.
National Championships are included regardless of the state in which they are held.
For para riders (only) results from CPEDIs and State Championships are included regardless of the state in which they are held.
Annual Award winners must achieve at least one result from the highest ranked test in a level. This applies to both EA tests and FEI tests. This does not apply to para riders.
The qualifying period for the awards is from the end of the NSW State Championships in one year up to and including the State Championships in the next year.
Riders must be current members of DNSW at the end of the qualifying period to be eligible.
Riders results are not eligible until the date they are current financial members of DNSW.
Riders must reside in NSW or the ACT to be eligible. The committee will consider results of new members who take out half yearly membership in January and renew for the coming financial year at the end of June.
The selection panel of DNSW will determine the FEI Young Rider of the Year, the open Pony of the year and the AOR pony of the year.
Riders are not required to nominate for annual awards or performance medals. Results are taken from Official Competitive results on the EA result data base.
Riders are encouraged to check their results on the EA data base and to contact ENSW if they feel the results are incorrect.
