The period for re-accreditation for  Judges has passed and some Judges are no longer on the official list of EA Judges and therefore are not eligible to judge at EA events until they are re-accredited.

Clubs and Judge organisers should check the status of judges judging at events on the EA national officials search.

Dressage NSW will be updating our official list shortly.  In the meantime we have removed the list to avoid confusion.
