ANCCE creates the PRE Working Equitation Team
ANCCE, by means of its General Sports Commission, has launched a new project. The sights of this latest endeavor are on the World Working Equitation Championship to be held in 2026 at the Royal Andalusian School of Equestrian Art, in Jerez de la Frontera (Cadiz, Spain). A PRE Working Equitation Team will be created and that is composed of four or five pairs, with horses that are at least five years of age.
The inspiration behind the project is to create a good team of Purebred Spanish Horses to represent Spain at this world event. To begin with, ANCCE has scheduled four concentrations in different areas of Spain to train the participants so that they learn or perfect the theory and practice of this equestrian discipline.
At the various concentrations, international World Association for Working Equitation (WAWE) Judge Jose Andres de Benito will be on hand, among other important attendees. He will provide the theory to then enter the arena to aid riders learn or perfect their skills for the trials (Dressage, Ease of Handling, and Speed).
The first concentration in 2023, in collaboration with Yeguada La Cartuja - Hierro del Bocado, will be held on the 14th and 15th of April at the aforementioned stud farm, with limited availability.
To participate, just fill out the form provided below, and e-mail it to jgomez@ancce.com before Wednesday, the 5th of April at 12:00 noon. This first concentration is open to all interested riders, after which the possible pairs making up this new PRE Team will be selected. For now, the rider's knowledge of this discipline and the aptitudes of his/her Purebred Spanish Horse will be taken into consideration.
