BD help?

[Welly Boot]

Just looking at BD (changed a lot since I was a member... used to be open / restricted) as a rider, I have 4 points at novice & 4 at ele all gained years ago..... new horse has no points - are we prelim bronze or silver?
Never been to Areas or regional or done music. Fair to say we got rubbish scores and scraped the points...

Competition rules

The rules are a great place to start for all the information you need to know to compete in affiliated dressage, including what you and your horse are allowed to wear, what the judges are looking for and how to qualify for all the different championships.

Scroll down to eligibility guides and click on relevant box....think those elem. points make you prelim silver.

I looked at guide... so if i get one yes in a column, that puts us in the next level up? so would be prelim silver? although prelims are so boring i might just work harder and start at novice.

Ring them, they are really helpful.
I’m new to BD and although I know i’m
bronze, I don’t know at what point you become silver, I tried googling it but I was just going round in circles.

Yes you will be prelim silver. You can have up to 24 novice points but no points above novice to do prelim bronze. So any points at Elem means you are prelim silver.

You are correct tho, as soon as you have 1 "yes" in the eligibility boxes you go up.
