If a class is judged by more than one official, the results must be averaged together for one award score.  (example: one cannot turn in three tests or 3 results from three different judges all from the same ride/drive/class when there were 3 officials judging, but the average of those scores may be used for one score).

Scoring: The score for each event that you participate is made of three parts

  1. Points are granted for each type of show.  See the table below:

Combined Driving Event “CDE” dressage class (USEF, ADS, EC) 5
Arena Driving Trial “ADT”; Super Derby “SD” dressage class (USEF, ADS, SHS, EC) 4
Combined Test “CT” dressage class (USEF, ADS, SHS, EC) 3

The total score for a class is determined by multiplying the Show Points times the Level Points times the Score Points.

Example:

Suppose you participate in an ADS recognized CDE at Preliminary Level, and score 66%.  This event would be scored as follows:

For the type of event 5pts, For the level shown 3pts, For the score 5pts.  The total score would be 5 times 3 times 4 or 60 points (5x3x4=60)

For the type of show 5pts
For the level shown 3pts
For the score 4pts
The total score 5 x 3 x 4=60
