WINDHOEK - The Gymkhana Club Windhoek will this weekend be hosting its first event of the season, when their eagerly awaited dressage competitions get underway this Saturday.

On Sunday, the pony riders dressage test will take place and will be followed by the M-Dressage for advanced riders.

The highlight on Sunday will doubtlessly be the abovementioned two competitions where riders and their horses will test their skills in order to proceed to the second round. 

This means no knock-downs and no time penalties in the first round.

Namibia’s only Fédération Equestre Internationale (FEI) course builder, Cord Cordes, has vowed to build technically intricate courses to keep the show jumpers on their toes.
