MIDWEST DRESSAGE ASSOCIATION MEDAL PROGRAM (Pilot Program)
The purpose of the MDA medal program is to acknowledge the hard work and dedication of our competing members. While we welcome scores from recognized shows, this program is designed for our schooling show competitors. This program is a fundraising effort and all profits will go directly into the awards fund for future prizes and ribbons.
Qualification Requirements and Minimum Scores:
Must be or have been an MDA member at the time of earning a score. There is no time limit for completing the medal qualifications, and the same rider can use multiple horses. Scores must be from at least 4 different judges, from six different rides. It does not matter what division was entered when the scores were earned, i.e. Open, Adult Amateur, and/or Junior. Western and classical scores cannot be combined to count toward the six scores, i.e. all six scores must be for either western or classical. All scores must be from an MDA sanctioned schooling show or a USDF recognized competition. Medals do not need to be earned consecutively.
