Competitions

“The aim is to put on national shows that are comparable in quality to top international competitions."!

“Our priorities are excellent event organisation, ideal conditions for horses and riders, an uncomplicated entry process with deadlines for entries close to the competition and the promotion of our sport,” said the Rhineland State Trainer, explaining his show concept.  Holger Hetzel and his team do everything possible to create the perfect competition environment for the riders and horses, and a great experience for spectators.

 

“With the focus on quality, not quantity, we want to give the riders a very easy-going and flexible competition experience.”
