Scoring

Our scoring system can be seen below. Because we have a variety of riders and tests from the US and Canada, we can’t guarantee that your division would have more than one person in it. Therefore, unless you ride in one of our hosted shows, you are not placed based on other riders’ scores, you are competing against yourself.

If you are a member of BDS, you can earn year end points with every test you ride! The points you earn accumulate for year end prizes (given to our top 10 riders in December of each year).

NOTE: For WDAA rides, links to the test as well as scores/points earned according to BDS standards can be seen in the first table on our results page. To view your placing in your month’s WDAA recognized show, scroll to the second table. Ribbons mailed will be according to the BDS standards, unless the rider/horse are WDAA members earning lifetime points.
