EACDG 2020 Information


We hope you have had a wonderful winter and didn't get too wet or windswept.

We take this opportunity to bring you up to date on the fast approaching 2020 season:  

  1. The memberships are now open along with schedule of events for this year, there are plenty or training events and plenty of one day events as requested. Please get your memberships and entries in early.
  2. We have introduced a new class, it's called Club Class, it will be run at all one day events throughout the year, it is aimed at newcomers or seasoned drivers who find themselves driving small ponies or new ponies, carriages can be two wheelers, and the three phases will be dressage, cones (10 pairs) and obstacles (two obstacles driven twice with no distance between), full rules available by request and on the website soon. This will be a perfect opportunity for those who have been driving indoors and feel their ponies are too small for the bigger marathon stages of a standard outdoor event.
  3. There is a new dressage test for Novices. It's called BC Novice test 2020, full details available on the BC website www.britishcarriagedriving.co.uk  Please take note that all novices will be using the new test this season.
  4. We have added a camping/driving event in the heart of Thetford Forest, places are numbered and details are on the club website, first come first served, No exceptions.
  5. We are currently putting together a stewards training day on March 7th at Ashfields, this will be fully funded, please email info@eacdg.co.uk for more details.

Please note that we try to keep you up to date at all opportunities, we use emails for those registered with us, we have the club website www.eacdg.co.uk and the club facebook page.
