Get Involved

Area competitions are opportunities for our members to compete against the other BRC clubs registered in Area 18 with the top teams and individuals usually qualifying for national championships. BRC host 6 national championships per year. These range from Intro to Advanced Medium Dressage and 60cm to 105cm show jumping. WDRC pays members' pre-entry fees for Area competitions and the entry fee for Championships providing they have helped with at least one club event during the year to raise the funds.

Mercian competitions are part of a league set up between local clubs to provide team competition at a grassroots level. There are a variety of competitions throughout the year with dressage classes starting at Intro and jumping starting at 50cm, and are all about having fun by representing your club in a friendly and relaxed atmosphere. There are no championships to qualify for, but team successes earn points for the club in the annual Leagues. Find out more on the league's Facebook page.

Online dressage competitions are available through e-riders who run an inter-riding club league, simply pick a test from the Riding Club schedule and enter 'Worcester & District Riding Club'.

WDRC is entirely run by volunteers, and we’re grateful for the time and effort they contribute to keeping the club running smoothly. To ensure that the workload is shared fairly, we kindly ask each member to volunteer just once a year to help out at a WDRC event. Of course anyone else who wants to donate their time is also very welcome!

Volunteering could be anything ranging from preparing sandwiches for judges, to helping erect rings, stewarding, judging, clearing away etc. If you have a particular skill – i.e. dressage judge/SJ course builder, please do let us know.

We welcome everyone at WDRC; senior and junior. Our members are automatically members of British Riding Clubs so have access to the BRC member benefits, plus the WDRC member benefits of subsidised training and competitions.

The Worcester and District Riding Club group on Facebook is the best place to keep up to date with what's on, but key messages will also be sent by email. The Worcester and District Riding Club Members Only group on Facebook is for members only (!) and gives priority notice of training and events.
